Bouncing Out in B-More

After 45 years years working in the business, this anchor says he is leaving Fox 45 (WBFF).

WBFF Sports Anchor Bruce Cunningham announced he is leaving the Sinclair station at the end of March.

Cunningham says “my entire adult life has been spent this way,” he said. “I’m ready to try something else. It wasn’t a hard decision to make but that’s not to say it was easy either, because this has been such a part of my life.”

He said he knew the end was drawing near when he signed his last two-year contract. He was tired of coming home after midnight and watching every game with his mind tilted toward that night’s broadcast. He craved normalcy.

“It’s hard to imagine anyone who’s had a better life than me,” he said. “The fan base here is so passionate and they love so hard. I recognized that instantly, and I wanted to break a little piece of that off for myself. It really worked out that way.”

His last day is March 31st, so why did he choose now to announce he was leaving.

Because dummy, March isn’t a ratings period.
