WVUE (New Orleans) announced that they have hired Kelsey Davis from their sister station WBRC in Birmingham.

Davis will anchor the FOX 8 Morning Edition.

For Davis, coming back to the Big Easy is a homecoming.

“In the last few years, I have truly found out what it meant to miss New Orleans,” said Davis. “I’ve learned so much from our Gray team in Birmingham, and I look forward to continued growth in the Crescent City. I am truly excited to join the amazing FOX 8 Morning Edition Team. I am humbled to join John Snell, Meg Gatto, Rob Krieger, Shelby Latino and Kristi Coleman -- to continue to build on the legacy of excellence they all have established. I am so looking forward to getting back home and joining the award-winning journalists at FOX 8!” 

“I’m very happy to welcome Kelsey home and have someone of her talent join our team,” said WVUE News Director Mikel Schaefer. “She’s a perfect fit, she already knows the city, the people, our rich culture and how major stories can impact our viewers.”
