Weeters 1969 Posted September 23, 2010 Posted September 23, 2010 http://onmilwaukee.com/myOMC/authors/timcuprisin/annestate.html Channel 6 has hired Anne State as a weeknight co-anchor. She'll start at the station the week of October 4, but it's not clear when she'll debut on the air. She spent two years at WBBM-TV, Chicago's CBS affiliate, and her contract wasn't renewed, as Chicago's Robert Feder reported.
The Anti Cub 2 Posted September 25, 2010 Posted September 25, 2010 She wasn't bad looking. But still she had mighty big boots to fill when channel 2 hired her. She still came across as "cold" to me. Oh well at least she gets to root for the Packers now Congratulation Anne

SFTV 532 Posted September 25, 2010 Posted September 25, 2010 she is missed in SD, i liked the way she would read stories. she has good annunciation skills. so sharp!
lazynetjunkie 34 Posted September 26, 2010 Posted September 26, 2010 she is missed in SD, i liked the way she would read stories. she has good annunciation skills. so sharp! Anne actually was a really good reporter at WBBM too after she was taken off the 6PM and 10PM anchor chair. I liked her.. I'm sure if the station's financial circumstances were a bit different at the time she was let go, they may have very well kept her. She had better chemistry with Rob Johnson at the anchor desk than Kate Sullivan currently does.. Anne has ALOT of friends and connections in Chicago. I'm sure a couple would have liked to take her over to their stations too.. I'm sure San Diego would have taken her back too. However, my feeling is that she didn't want to go too far because I think she intends on landing back in the Chicago market in the future.. Whether it's 2 years, 5 years, 10 years from now.. Who knows. But she really made clear a while back that she felt Chicago was where she wanted to be..
trev57 46 Posted October 7, 2010 Posted October 7, 2010 WITI announced via their Facebook page that Anne State will make her debut with the station tonight on Fox 6 News at 9.
Weeters 1969 Posted October 8, 2010 Author Posted October 8, 2010 She seems a bit rusty tonight... Hopefully she'll improve with time.
