Anchor-reporter Carla Wade will be leaving Dallas-based TEGNA8 after the station declined to renew her contract, informed sources tell unclebarky.com.

Wade came to D-FW in late January 2013 from Oklahoma City’s KOCO-TV, where she also spent three years. She’s been anchoring TEGNA8’s weekend morning newscasts and also reporting on weekdays. Wade began at TEGNA8 as a co-anchor the station’s weekend P.M. newscasts with Jason Wheeler.

Sources say that Wade, who could not immediately be reached for comment Thursday, has been taken off the weekend anchor schedule but may be required to continue reporting until her contract officially expires later in January.

TEGNA8 recently posted a job opening for a weekend morning anchor/reporter.
