FTVLive had a similar "exclusive" scoop a few days back about her. I don't think anyone can be surprised by this. She joins Tony Perkins and Annie Yu, among others, who've also switched to WUSA from Fox 5. All eyes on Shawn Yancy now with regards to her next move or if she ultimately chooses to move away from television.

The bosses have now paid money to lure 3 primary anchors away from WTTG and yet, they’re still in 4th place. And still, everyone’s being asked to shoulder the load of corporate pain, taking unpaid furloughs, etc. 2 Link to comment https://localnewstalk.net/topic/16860-out-about/page/435/#findComment-252543 Share on other sites More sharing options...

There’s little doubt they were going to go after another anchor in the market, so to string their existing talent along is pretty low.

MarkBRollins88_v2 350 Posted October 28, 2020 Share Posted October 28, 2020 Major shakeup in Colorado Springs on the heels of a station tragedy... KKTV main anchor Dianne Derby has resigned from the station today, less than two months after her longtime co-Anchor, Don Ward, unexpectedly passed away. The two were very close, and she took a leave of absence most of last month. Just yesterday, the station announced morning anchor Adam Atchison would be promoted to Ward’s old position. Now, they have another main anchor spot to fill with Derby’s departure. https://gazette.com/arts-entertainment/dianne-derby-leaves-kktv/article_41a83488-193f-11eb-ae50-5be21cd621bc.html Link to comment https://localnewstalk.net/topic/16860-out-about/page/435/#findComment-252752 Share on other sites More sharing options...
