KPRC Lays Off Wendy Corona

I was not happy about this.

News 2 Houston has laid off Wendy Corona, one of the most professional news anchors I’ve seen hit Houston in a long time. Channel 2s news director claims it was for “economic reasons.”

I don’t know, if I want to cut costs, why get rid of the real talent? Aren’t there extra wasted dollars in the budget? Maybe a traffic girl used for “eye candy” purposes. Frankly, I don’t care if her ratings are high amongst married white males living in the suburbs who get bored with their wives. I watch the news, well, for the news. If I want good traffic reports, then I’ll flip over to Darby on the other channel.

KPRC lost some real news talent.

Good luck to Wendy.

  1. I’m upset that they laid off Wendy
    she was professional and great looking-I don’t think it’s a crime to look good. I think that when they renewed D. Sachse’s contract
    they couldn’t afford Wendy’s renewal. Hopefully another local channel will sign her,comeon Ch.13.
    Wendy if u read this please stay.

    Heh heh. “Slow and go”

    Hey, I’m glad they gave La Reyna a real story to do during the Olympics. A few human interest stories and her career can take off beyond “eye-candy”-ness.

  3. Easy on the La Reyna…this married Latino used to drink coffee in the morning to wake up…but now she does the trick…plus you have to love that obligatory traffic-speak “Slow and Go”.
