The great Linda Ellerbee that you’re nobody in TV news until you’ve been fired.

It appears that Bekah Birdsall has now earned her stripes.

Birdsall posted the news that she has been let go from WBTV in Charlotte.

I will say that getting fired in TV news is nothing to be ashamed of. In this business, it happens.

Birdsall seems to be handling it with a good attitude.

It’s refreshing to see someone being open and honest and I have a feeling that we haven’t heard the last from Birdsall.

FTVLive wishes her good luck as she moves forward.
