Just found out NBC 2 Weekday Morning Anchor Taniya Wright is no longer with the station after just 9 months (she joined in August of 2019). According to multiple sources, no other information is available yet. Wright anchored the weekday morning & midday newscasts until today. No information about her future plans were available or disclosed. I should note Wright was on today's morning newscast earlier today, but not in the midday newscast for some reason. Thoughts on Wright's departure from NBC 2 & the revolving door at the station ? https://mikemcguff.blogspot.com/2020/04/taniya-wright-leaves-kprc-2.html?m=1 https://www.facebook.com/pg/kprc2taniya/ https://www.facebook.com/TaniyaWright / -

Sad news for anybody, who watched NBC 2 KPRC-TV Houston over the years. Former NBC 2 KPRC-TV Houston Weatherman Doug Johnson, passed away on Thursday night at the age of 79. Johnson joined NBC 2 in 1962 & stayed until his retirement in 1992. He was also the co-host for "The Scene at 5" with the late Ron Stone. In case you have been living under rocks, Johnson was bitten by Wilma the Weather Chicken LOL. http://www.click2houston.com/news/doug-johnson-longtime-kprc2-weatherman-dies-at-79 http://mikemcguff.blogspot.com/2019/01/doug-johnson-of-kprc-has-died.html Give your thoughts on Johnson's passing & his long career with NBC 2.

With Nick Giovanni leaving KPRC-TV for WUSA-TV in Washington D.C., the NBC Houston affiliate replaced him with James Starks as one of the station's sports anchors/reporters. Who is James Starks you might ask ? Starks played for the Cincinnati Bengals as a free agent in 2008. Injuries led him to play for the Ancona Dolphins in Italy. Before going to the Pros, Starks was a two-time All-American at Capital University in Columbus, OH. In 2007, he was named the Ohio Athletic Conference's defensive back of the year. Before joining KPRC-TV, he previously worked at WOIO-TV and Fox 8 in Cleveland, where Starks was a sideline reporter and anchor. He follows another recent KPRC-TV sports hire, Simone Eli, who was also a college athlete. http://mikemcguff.blogspot.com/2014/09/james-starks-kprc-2-sports-anchor-reporter-.html Now the sports team at KPRC-TV includes Randy McIlvoy (sports director), Simone Eli, Chester Pitts, and Starks. Reaction to this hiring and how Starks will be received by the KPRC-TV faithful ?

After 20 years at KPRC-TV NBC 2 Houston, reporter Mary Benton is calling it quits and leaving the TV biz for good and going into the private sector, according to the Houston Chronicle and Mike McGuff of mikemcguff.com. "It's certainly with mixed emotions that I'm leaving." Benton told mikemcguff.com. "I'm going to miss my coworkers at Channel 2. Most importantly, I will miss interacting with viewers that have become like friends and family. I was so blessed that I had the opportunity to tell their stories over two decades. I think what I will miss the most is being a voice in the newsroom and represent those that did not have a voice in the media." Benton's last day on KPRC-TV will be July 11th. http://mikemcguff.blogspot.com/2014/07/mary-benton-is-leaving-kprc-2.html?m=1 http://www.chron.com/ http://www.kprc.com/ Benton's been there since 1994. Any reaction from ladies and gentlemen about Benton leaving KPRC-TV after 20 years?
