Tegna Anchor is M-I-A

TV stations often talk about transparency, but they often have trouble with practicing it.

At Tegna’s WGRZ (Buffalo) main Anchor Maryalice Demler has been off the air for the past three weeks and the station hasn’t said anything.

Other than the obligatory, “Maryalice is off tonight,” at the beginning of the newscasts, the station has made no mention of her long absence from the air.

Insiders say that she is dealing with a “family matter” and there is no word on when her return is expected.

You have to love how stations want viewers to look at their talent as family, but then go silent when something like this happens.

Don’t demand transparency from others, when you don’t practice it yourself.

Just saying…
