Bouncing Out in Birmingham

After 4 decades of doing the news, longtime WBRC Anchor/Reporter Janet Hall is signing off from the Gray station later this month.

“I am filled with gratitude and love for the viewers who have welcomed me into their homes over four decades and allowed a very young reporter to grow into a veteran anchor. It has been my honor to share your stories, your heartbreak and your joy. Thank you for supporting me as I have lived out a career beyond my wildest dreams. I am blessed to have worked with incredibly talented journalists committed to making our community a better place. I’m a lucky girl. I inherited a grand WBRC legacy when I arrived atop Red Mountain 40 years ago to work in the footsteps of legendary broadcasters I grew up watching. I now leave that legacy in the safe hands and hearts of the WBRC family,” Hall said.

“No doubt about it, we owe a large debt of gratitude to Janet for all she’s done on behalf of WBRC over the year’s that has allowed this station to succeed and lead in Alabama’s largest market,” said WBRC FOX6 News Vice President and General Manager, Collin R. Gaston. “There will certainly be a void when she’s gone, but her legacy of hard work, empathy for our audiences, high journalistic standards and kind nature will live on. We wish Janet and her wonderful family nothing but the best in retirement,” Gaston added.
