They Found Out From FTVLive

When FTVLive FIRST broke the news that former longtime WPIX Anchor Sukanya Krishnan and longtime WABC Anchor Lori Stokes would both be popping up at Fox owned WNYW, it was a big story. 

Krishnan debuted on the station's air yesterday, despite the fact that Fox Television has not even confirmed FTVLive's story.

But, it gets worse.

The people in the Fox 5 newsroom found out about the changes from reading FTVLive. "Someone in the newsroom read it and told them about it when they got off the set at 7am," a WNYW newsroom insider tells FTVLive. 

After the FTVLive story was posted, only then was a newsroom meeting called. 

Former WNYW Anchor Juliet Huddy took to social media and posted about how no one knew what was going down until they read it on FTVLive. She was not happy:

As FTVLive FIRST reported, former WABC Anchor Lori Stokes is joining the station in the Fall. Of course, Fox PR will not confirm our story, despite it being true. Let's hope they at least give the staff a heads-up first.

I know they would appreciate hearing it from the bosses and not getting all their information from FTVLive.
