Ft. Myers to Beantown

On August 1st, FTVLive told you that WINK (Ft. Myers) Anchor Nicole Gabe had left the station.

Gabe has now resurfaced at Boston 25, the struggling Cox station.

“Boston 25 is proud to have Nicole join an already strong team of anchors, reporters, news directors, and production teams,” said Todd Brown, VP and General Manager, Boston 25. “Her focus on telling the stories viewers need to see and her commitment to her community make her a great fit for our team.”

“I’m excited to work with an anchor with such a deep dedication to understanding the stories she communicates, in addition to her willingness to personally improve the communities she covers,” said Karen Levy, Creative Services Director at Boston 25.

That’s the first time I have seen a quote from the Creative Services Director on a news anchor hire.

Weird.

Gabe will work on the station’s morning newscast.
