Good News...sort of

I was getting ready for work Sunday morning and turned on WFAA, channel 8 and saw TXCN/KVUE alumni Jolene Devito hosting the local intros for "Do It Yourself (in this case) Dallas." I know the show aired on TXCN but the studio space looks like channel 8's although I guess she could have recorded them several months ago. Perhaps she's doing freelance work since Belo realizes she's quite popular? I'm glad to see her even if it's not in full capacity. Come on Belo get smart and make her full-time again!

You also forgot KXAN before she headed to Dallas.

But, I agree, it would be good to see her in f/t capacity again.

Channel 8 is running DIY shows that were produced a year or two ago. These are old tapes, not new. Devito is not back and won't be coming back. It is sad, but WFAA is just plain dumb.
