Goodbye Selena Wiles
Aug 22, 2008 - 01:08 pmA dear friend and co-worker is leaving us.
Selena Wiles has been “stolen” from News Channel 11. The very wise managers of a TV station in Erie, Pennsylvania, made her an offer she could not refuse. Selena will be their main anchor. In the TV biz, that means she WON’T be working mornings or weekends.
Selena is a rare find. Totally genuine. First a journalist, then a news anchor. A gifted writer and speaker. A fiercly devoted friend. An equally fierce fighter when the war is on.
We natives see them come and go on local TV, don’t we? We just get to know and love them. Then they leave. Some are happy to move on to the next big gig. Other’s grow to love us too. Selena is one who’s as sad about leaving as we are about seeing her go. I can tell you this for sure; she loves the Tri-Cities region and the people who live here.
People of Erie: listen up! You’re in for a treat. And your gain is our loss.
Send your congratulations to Selena here on the Morning Edition blog. We’ll make sure she sees them.
