Nexstar Swings the Blade in the Big Apple

Yesterday, FTVLive told you that Nexstar had swung the ax at WGN in Chicago. Nearly two handfuls of talent were told that their services were no longer needed.

FTVLive now hears that Nexstar suits, along with HR came into WPIX (New York) and word is that more cuts were made at that property.

We don’t have final numbers just yet, but we hear that Traffic Anchor Alexa Farrell was cut.

Sources tell FTVLive that 4-5PM Anchor Arrianee LeBeau was also kicked to the curb.

One source tells FTVLive that Anchor John Muller was part of the cuts as well.

Nexstar is making cuts in a cost saving move as the company will be taking on a massive debt when it closes the deal with Tegna.

We fully expect more cuts are coming at Nexstar properties.
