Signing Off in the Big Easy

WVUE (New Orleans) Anchor Shelley Brown announced that she was leaving the station to….say it with me….spend more time with her family.

“We tried for so many years to have kids and then we finally had them and it was like these two miracles,” she says. “It’s just hard not being here for the routine; picking them up from school, being here for dinner, reading books, baths, getting ready to go to bed,” she said. “I’ve decided that it’s time to leave the news business.”

Brown admits walking away from the only career she’s known since college is hard. It’s been a bittersweet decision.

”It’ll be tough because when it’s your career and you’ve worked so hard to get here and you’ve worked with these people for so long, its hard,” she commented.
