Sources tell FTVLive that WCPO morning anchor Chris Riva was one of those that fell to the Scripps budget ax. 

Riva started at WCPO in 1994, left for a bit and came back in 2014. 

Riva was told that the station is "restructuring" and that his contract was not being renewed.  

His bio has been scrubbed from the station's website.  

Don't you just love this business?
