It will be an end of an era in Bean Town…

WCVB Anchor Randy Price announced this morning that he plans to sign off at the end of the May book.

“I’ve enjoyed every minute of my more than 10 years anchoring the EyeOpener newscasts here at WCVB; and now I’ve decided it’s time for me to step back from my career in news and start a new chapter. I look forward to enjoying different adventures in my life,” said Price.

“Not only is Randy a media legend here in Boston, but he’s always been a respected leader and very positive presence in the Channel 5 newsroom,” said Bill Fine, WCVB General Manager.

Price was one of the nation's first openly gay TV news anchors.He has been a keynote emcee at countless LGBT events.

“It’s truly been a privilege to work with the most talented journalists in the business, both on-the-air and behind-the-scenes, here at Channel 5…they will all always be my family,” Price said. “And, I couldn’t be more grateful to our wonderful and loyal viewers for making the EyeOpener the most watched morning newscasts in the market…thank you!”
