Two Years and Out in Miami

In April of 2021, CBS’s WFOR announced that Darryll Green was coming on board as the new General Manager.

Two years later, CBS announced that Green is leaving the station.

Yesterday, Green sent this memo out to the staff to tell them he’s retiring:

 CBS Miami friends and colleagues,

I am reaching out this morning to share some personal news. When I received the opportunity to work for CBS and come here, I was excited to be part of something I believed would be truly special. I’m thrilled to say this experience has exceeded my expectations. Recently, I’ve been giving a lot of thought to what’s next and what’s best for me personally. After careful consideration, I have decided to put an exclamation point on my nearly 40-year career in broadcasting by retiring as of April 28th.

 It’s been an honor to have had a front row seat to see what you have accomplished during my two-plus years here. From launching our CBS News Miami streaming channel, to scoring several monthly wins in late news, producing impactful award-winning content, adding several new team members, and strengthening our relationships with our clients and community partners, I’m going to be stepping away with so many happy memories and a ton of gratitude.

 I want to thank Wendy McMahon, Adrienne Roark and the other leaders across CBS who have been so supportive. I hope you agree that they have done a lot to help make CBS Miami a much better place to work.

I hope that we will continue to stay in touch, especially since my wife and I plan to continue to make Miami our home.

 Thank you from the bottom of my heart for everything you’ve done to make me so proud and position CBS Miami for even more success in the years to come.

 Darryll

 DARRYLL J. GREEN
PRESIDENT AND GENERAL MANAGER
