Local Reporters listed as "on the beach"

Sorry, that should be Elizabeth Erwin (just copied it like TVJobs.com had it listed). Elizabeth has posted both on her Facebook and Twitter accounts that she is leaving KPHO to join another station in Phoenix (she just cannot say which station right now).
Sorry to hear about Eric. A great guy, solid reporter and gifted photographer. Wherever he lands next will be lucky to have him.
Christine LaCroix gone aswell, she's picking Law over Journalism! Studying for her Bar Exam.

I wonder if she is gone permanently or just off while studying for the bar. According to her 3TV bio, she moved to Phoenix to attend law school in 2009 and had already graduated by the time she took job at 3TV in June 2012.
Anyway, there seems to be more lawyers trying to get into broadcasting than broadcasters going into law.
Eric English...not on the beach
TVJobs.com is reporting today (07/22) that Eric English was reinstated with KNXV (ABC15).
(I've seen a number of these "on the beach" on day and reinstated the next. Don't know where the communication breakdown is that would have TVJobs say they are gone when they are not.)

Re: Eric English...not on the beach
I don't think it was a communication breakdown. ABC15 lists the anchor/reporter bios alphabetically on their website. Eric English is tucked down at the bottom of the roster today instead of up in the "E"s. I think they didn't come to an agreement before the contract expired and pulled the plug. Somebody figured out how to save it and he's back.

They are also confirming that Marie Saavedra is departing KTVK to join WFAA in Dallas (both currently Belo stations).
And who the heck could ever forget Dewey Hopper??? 
I spent a summer here at ASU 30 years ago...and I always remembered Dewey Hopper! I also remember Linda Alvarez and the "Hello Phoenix/Arizona" theme music (because it was the same as Channel 12 in Providence with "Hello Rhode Island").

I was partial to channel 12's news theme, "It's All Right Here." I heard that came from Peter's Productions over in San Diego.
