Bounced in the Big Apple

Word is that WCBS and reporter Derricke Dennis have parted ways.

Dennis tells the website Tuned In that he is no longer employed by the CBS O&O.

While Dennis would not elaborate about the departure, sources say this was a case of station management choosing not to renew his contract.

Dennis, who left the station at the end of July, spent three years at WCBS.

“I enjoyed my time at WCBS,” Dennis tells Tuned In. “I loved telling the stories across New York, New Jersey, and Connecticut, and plan to do it again very soon.”

Before landing in New York, Dennis had a six-year stint as a reporter at WDIV in Detroit.
