Talent Being Pushed out at Cox Jacksonville Stations
/Insiders tell FTVLive that a number of on air staffers at WTEV/WAWS Action News Jacksonville have been informed that their contracts are not being renewed.
Sources tell FTVLive that 5 members of the on air staff have been told that their services will no longer be needed.
FTVLive contacted WTEV News Director Bob Longo for comment.
Longo's station promos promise to give you every story with every DETAIL..... but he did not want to give details to FTVLive.
"Out of respect for our employees, we don't publicly discuss personnel matters," Longo told FTVLive. So, the station promises to report "every detail" as long as it doesn't involve their own.
God I love the communications business.
FTVLive is working our sources and will have more on the story in the future.
WTEV/WAWS is owned by Cox. No word if other cuts are happening Cox properties. Earlier Today, FTVLive FIRST reported that KIRO News Director Bob Jordan announced that he was retiring from the Cox station next month.
