Popping up in Raleigh

A former Tulsa Anchor is about to resurface in Raleigh for the Feb book. 

WCNC has announced that they have hired  Taniya Wright as the new weekday morning and noon co-anchor.

Wright, previously worked at KJRH in Tulsa, Okla., will join Russ Bowen, Paul Heggen and Erin Clanahan starting Feb. 1.
