Off the Case

WMFJ (Youngstown) Morning Anchor Mike Case is leaving the station for the dark side. 

Case announced that this week will be his last week as co-anchor on WFMJ Today.

Case told the morning audience that he is leaving the news business for a new job in sales.

Case has been in broadcast journalism for 28 years, 17 of those years here at WFMJ Television.

“It's been tough getting up at 3 a.m. For 12 years,” said Case, who is looking forward to his new job.

After working at Cleveland's WOIO/WUAB as a sports producer, Case came to WFMJ where he anchored the sports with Sports Director Dana Balash.

Five years later he made the transition to the morning show as the live "Out and About" reporter and became the anchor of the morning show in February 2012.
