I heard Rob Jennings will retire at the end of July. Has this happened yet? I know this is the radio section of radiodiscussions but WPVI was heard on 87.75 on the fm dial. I posted this question about Rob on the Philly TV section and no one replied. Can someone record his last show on video?

Per an article on philly.com, he's already retired. His last newscast was Sunday, July 21. His one minutes final thank you message was included in the philly.com article.
Sadly, Ch 6 lost it's audio on FM when the HDTV mandate went through years ago.
There are 2 Jenning s videos on the Ch6 website, his sign-off, and a reprise when Gardner brought him back for a proper tribute the next Friday on the 6pm telecast.

He's a pretty humble fellow.

Who will replace Rob on the WPVI weekend newscasts?
For the immediate future it's Walter Perez, with Eva Pilgrim replacing him on weekday mornings.

I sort of doubt that. Larry Kane has been retired for about five years now!
