More than a few FTVLive readers reached out after reading about the death of WCBS Meteorologist Elise Finch, who passed away suddenly over the weekend.

Just in the New York City market, Anchors Elise Finch, Katherine Creag, and Lisa Colagrossi all passed away at an early age and all worked in morning TV news.

Anyone that works the overnight shift knows what a toll it takes on your health.

A former Journalist that worked on a network morning show had this to say to FTVLive, ”Health was the #1 reason I stepped away from working the morning shift. Among the issues - I had near constant headaches. I saw what happened with Lisa and Katherine and I knew if I kept going, I wouldn’t be around long for my 2 boys.”

The shift hurts your body and your mental health. You find yourself constantly tired and it impacts all aspects of your life.

I think all TV stations should really look at what these hours do to the people that work the overnight shift.

Maybe putting everyone that works the overnight hours on a 4-day-work-week would help them.

It’s worth looking into.
