Ameera David is leaving Channel 7

Jenn Schanz's last day was yesterday. She has always been enjoyable to watch.

Kim Russell is no longer listed on the WXYZ staff page. You can get to her old direct WXYZ profile link from Google, but her picture is missing. When did she leave? There is no announcement on her social media and she hasn't posted anything related to WXYZ news since the first week of May. Her LinkedIn shows Jun 2011 - May 2023 at WXYZ.

Kim and Scripps were unable to reach an agreement on a new contract.

Not a big loss.

I was kind of a fan of hers years ago, but that's since waned.

Who's next?

Channel 7 seems to have the highest turnover, Channel 4 being second. What is up with that? Kim Russell is no longer listed on the WXYZ staff page.

There is no announcement on her social media and she hasn't posted anything related to WXYZ news since the first week of May. Her LinkedIn shows Jun 2011 - May 2023 at WXYZ. She has said on social media that she would never leave Detroit, but job availability can change that. Alex Bozarjian or Brett Kast is probably next to leave.

You were correct on Alex. I saw her interviewing someone while driving through South Lyon last night and after her report Mike Duffy said that was her last report with the station.

I think Jenn was living downtown so she was probably happy to do it.

Damn - they're dropping like flies over there. Alex does really good work, in my opinion.

I wonder if Jenn began looking for a new job when the dumbasses who run channel 7 began forcing her to drive to downtown Detroit in the wee hours of the morning to anchor the news solo from their fish bowl studio inside the Chase Bank building?

She was also the one and only reporter they have that was native to out of state… Massachusetts in this case so she was the journeyman type I get the feeling.

What about Alex?

[Vee TeeVee]

Alex is gone, too. She left sometime last month, I believe.

[SteveS]

I know. I mentioned it a month ago further up on this page but I was just wondering if Editorcj knew the story.

On a related note, it appears that Ameera David landed at The National Desk. Don't know how long she's been there.

Alex Bozarjian got a job in Houston, she didn't like the cold, is bilingual Spanish so a good fit for her there. Everyone knew she was a 1 and done at 7.
