The Year of the Exodus continues, with TEGNA8 reporter Philip Townsend the latest to exit the D-FW market.
Townsend, who joined the Dallas-based station in December, 2014, is going back to the station he left -- Norfolk, VA’s ABC affiliate, WVEC-TV.
“He will return as their new weekend anchor!” TEGNA8 news director Carolyn Mungo said in a memo to staffers obtained by unclebarky.com.
His last day at TEGNA8 will be on Sept. 30th, Mungo said. “We wish him the very best.”
