Leaving the TV Biz to Make some Real Money

Talk about going over to the dark side.

KCNC Reporter Jodi Brooks is leaving the TV News business for a job in sales.  

“I decided a year ago that it was time to do something totally different,” Brooks told the Denver Post. 

The Reporter signs off from the station Today and will become the regional sales director for a business-to-business insurance company.

“I chose fame over fortune (in the TV gig), now I’m choosing fortune over fame.”

“My dream was to be a TV news reporter,” she said. Now, “I knew I had to turn the corner.”
