Quitting Anchor: The Station Tried to Keep me

Several times demoted former WPEC (West Palm Beach) Anchor wants you to know that he quit the station and was not fired.​

Yes, Juan Carlos Fanjul was demoted, a few times, but he says the station tried to keep him with a new offer. ​

“I can confirm I’ve decided to leave CBS 12 after 5 years,” Fanjul wrote. “CBS 12 was very gracious in offering me a new deal to keep me at the station, but I decided it was time to find a challenging new assignment in television news.

“In fact, a national search is underway on my behalf by Napoli Management Group in Beverly Hills and I’m already considering some appealing opportunities. I look forward to making an announcement in the near future.”

Still, says Fanjul, it wasn’t an easy decision.

“It’s a bittersweet decision because I will miss my colleagues and most importantly, my loyal viewers who have been so kind to me over the years,” he added.

​Fangul does not say if the offer from the station was for less money that he was getting under his last agreement.
