Niyah Gonzalez quit her job at Spectrum News Dallas, and watching her goodbye video on Instagram, I think she made the right call.

Gonzalez irons her outfit and puts on her makeup, while talking about why she was quitting.

At no point did she mention the word journalism, or talk about the impact any of her stories made. She doesn’t mention what she covered, the people she met, or anything about news.

This was all about her, and her saying that she might get back into TV (she never said Journalism) at some point in the future.

It’s clear that she wants to be an influencer and if that’s what she wants, good for her trying to go that direction.

As for a future in TV news, I say, please don’t come back.

The industry needs real Journalists, not influencers who want to be on TV.
