Yetta GONE from 3TV evenings...back on GMAZ

Well, Carey Pena announced on her Facebook page that she is anchoring at 6, 9, and 10pm with Yetta going back to GMAZ. I guess the low evening ratings led to this decision. :-[
 
We will see what the anchor lineup is. This morning, Javier and Kaley were on between 7am and 8am. I believe Stella was doing a live report.

Since Stella was not in the promos, I'm guessing that Stella will become a reporter for GMAZ and, then, quietly go away when her contract is up. I'm assuming that Yetta will become an anchor for at least part of the show (possibly the 4:30 to 6 am shift that Stella had). I would also see Yetta providing entertainment news as well.
 
Yetta's personality is amazing, she seems like a real nice, funny person! I'm glad she's still at the station. Hmm I wonder where Stella will end up...?

I predict Tucson! :D That's where Alison Alexander, who helped out at 3TV during Kaley's last pregnancy, is now.

I agree about Yetta. She does have a sparkling personality and I hope she does well on GMAZ. 3TV's ratings just aren't very good in the late evenings. Having Fields, Carey, and Yetta in the late evenings was just devoting too many good resources to a small audience.
 
Mystery solved! A close reading of Carey Pena's Facebook page reveals that Stella will be moving to EVENINGS at 3TV!! The main anchor team will be Carey and Fields, but Stella will be one of the main reporters and fill-in anchor. Honestly, it sounds better than getting up at 1:30am...
 
Stella has great anchor skills and a very easy going personality. She's one of my favorites.
Yetta always seems at her best every time she steps in front of the camera...a real pro.
Channel 3 is hands down the local news champ.
 
Hopefully 3TV will finally promote the ENTIRE GMAZ team. I didn't like when they introduced their current ads/pictures with just Scott, Tara, Kaley and April. I think Fox10 Mornings does it the right way.

So, according to the Facebook posts, the GMAZ team will be: Kaley, Scott, Javier, Yetta, Gina, and April. I believe that they were all in the GMAZ photo. But, brian4, I think that you are most concerned about the photos indicating the future direction of the team -- rather than a public acknowledgement of any upcoming changes.

As you know, it's a delicate topic when dealing with personnel issues. I agree that I would rather have a press release from the station telling us what is going on. I don't consider a Facebook post by a team member to be adequate, nor do I consider making a HUGE announcement on a radio show to be adequate.
 
The dreaded FBI Moneygram virus got me. Haven't been able to respond :'(

I like the new GMAZ promos with all 6 anchors/personalities. However, since I go to work at 6:00, I'm not sure of the lineup. I know that it's Scott and Yetta at 4:30, Scott and Kaley from 5:00 to ? I'm sure Scott and Kaley were thrilled when they found out their shifts would start (30 minutes/1 hour) early.
 
I believe that the lineup is as follows:

4:30-5 Yetta + Scott
5-9 Scott + Kaley
9-10 Kaley + Javier

Or, at least, that's what one of the Facebook posts said.
