Gone in Motown
/
Almost 40 people have either left or been pushed out at the Detriot station in recent memory.
FTVLive told you that Weather Anchor Denise Isaac found out she is being let go just as she was about to have her baby.
Insiders told FTVLive that Issac had a job offer in Boston last year, but was told her no because Chris Edwards, another weather anchor just quit.
Well, Isaac confirmed what FTVLive FIRST reported when she sent out this email to her co-workers.

Dear colleagues,
It has been 11 days since many of you have seen me and so much has changed. In case you didn't know, January 29th was my last day at WXYZ. It wasn't planned that way but sometimes you have to roll with it and let life take its course. So my deepest apologies for not saying 'goodbye' though I'm so happy to have seen many of the old and new faces at Nate's retirement bonanza.
The past 20 months flew by...I'm so lucky to have worked with so many professionals in this field, especially with my schedule being all over the place from day 1, I got to meet and work with the best in each shift.
Thanks to everyone at Action News especially The Now and weekend morning news team.
Thanks to JoAnne, Carolyn and Glenda for taking me under their wings, you all made it easier for me and family to feel welcomed and comfortable in the D!
Directors, technical directors, producers, photogs, security guards... Thank YOU!
To the weekend morning crew, waking up at 2am was so worth it. Each one of you are a GEM and I'll miss you dearly.
WXYZ truly has the most dedicated news team and I am proud I got to be part of this family.
Thank you for supporting my pregnancy and always having great things to say when I felt like I couldn't walk anymore :)
Just in case you are wondering if we had a baby or not, on February 7th, we got to welcome Emilie into this world. So for all of you who had bets on a girl, you were right!!!
I'm attaching a picture of my smart and beautiful girl.
