Headed to Jax
WZTV (Nashville) Assignment Manager Grover Murrell is leaving the Sinclair station and headed down to FTVLive’s backyard.
An internal memo went out to the staff at Cox’s WJAX/WFOX in Jacksonville from News Director Pascale Head. It was obtained by FTVLive:
WZTV insiders tell FTVLive that with Murrell leaving Nashville, there is no longer a Black news manager in the market. “The Nashville market "looks" diverse on-air, but behind the scenes, it’s whitewashed,” said a market insider.
Murrell posted about his move on social media:
Let’s hope Grover stops by the FTVLive Embassy with some cookies.
