Moving Off Mornings in Birmingham

For the past decade, Clare Huddleston has been part of the morning newscasts at WBRC, but that is about to change.

The Gray station announced that Huddleston has been named anchor of WBRC’s new 11 a.m. hour-long newscast that will debut in September.

Huddleston will anchor the 11 a.m. hour of WBRC’s mid-day newscast and serve as executive producer of WBRC’s livestream platforms, producing unique content for the station’s streaming channels. Additionally, Huddleston will also be anchoring and producing a livestream-only show that will air weekdays.

“Clare is committed to showcasing our community and helping our viewers get the best information each day,” said Shannon Isbell, News Director of WBRC FOX6 News. “It’s exciting to see a talented journalist take on an even bigger role on our team and I know viewers will enjoy seeing more of a familiar face.”

WBRC FOX6 News Vice President and General Manager, Collin R. Gaston, added, “Clare contributes greatly to our newscasts as a key member of our team, and now additionally, will help lead our streaming content to the next level!”

No word on who or if she will be replaced on the morning newscasts?
