Pam Zeckman, others out at Channel 2

Per Feder, she's been laid off after 39 years at the station. Others include morning news anchor Erin Kennedy, sportscaster Megan Mawicke, meteorologist Megan Glaros, and reporters Mike Puccinelli and Mai Martinez. The usual excuses were given: Affects from COVAD-19, corporate restructuring, and revenue down 63%.

How in the world does a TV station let go of one of the best investigative reporters in the country, regardless of her age (75) or salary? I remember when she first joined the station in 1981. She was already one of Chicago's top reporters, even in her relative youth, after 10 years with the Tribune. Dumb move, CBS.
