Tegan’s WRGZ (Buffalo) Weekend Anchor Ron Plants has been off the air for quite some time, but the station is not saying why.

Now, WGRZ has replaced Plants with a new Anchor.

Claudine Ewing has been officially named the weekend anchor at WGRZ replacing Plants.

Plants has been missing for the air the last several months for undisclosed reasons. “Ron is doing well and working part-time in an off the air role,” said WGRZ Anchor Maryalice Demler.

Plants apparently isn’t ready to go on the air and did not appear on the newscast, but he released a statement read by Demler. “I have known Claudine as a colleague and personal friend for some 20 years and I can’t think of anybody better to take this position,” wrote Plants.

Ewing’s promotion is effective immediately.
