They're all Gone

It wasn’t that long ago that this promo appeared for Scripps-owned WFTX in Ft. Myers.

Now, all of those people pictured have either left, were pushed out, or were canned from the station.

They aren’t the only ones. Sources tell FTVLive that 8 on-air people have left the Florida station, and a number of staffers behind the scenes are also gone.

Former Anchor Jane Monreal is not going quietly, she has sued the station after her departure.

Insiders point to General Manager Evan Pappas as the reason for most of the exits. Pappas just celebrated one year at the station, and the turnover has been “massive” according to a station insider under Pappas regime.
