Done in Philly

After more than two dozen years on the job, Fox Philly Reporter Bruce Gordon says you can stick a fork in him….he’s done.

Gordon announced his retirement in a broadcast Friday morning when Fox Philly aired a segment looking back on his 23-year career with the station. During the segment, Gordon called his time at the Philadelphia Fox affiliate a “great honor.”

“It was not an original dream of mine necessarily to report in my hometown, but it’s been one of the great thrills of my life,” Gordon said.

Early professional gigs for Gordon included working as a sports anchor at KTXS-TV in Abilene, Texas, a news reporter at KTAB-TV, and a reporting job at KTBC-TV in Austin. By the late 1980s, Gordon left Texas for St. Louis, where he worked as a consumer and environmental reporter at KTVI-TV. He joined Fox Philly in 1996.
