You read it here first, nobody has that scoop yet, at last I can let the cat out of the bag. I have it on good ear that WSCV-T51′s very popuplar morning weather guy Felipe Ferro has been hired as 7News’ chief meteorologist. His last day at Telemundo 51 will be April 1st and he begins at WSVN by May. Me thinks before May sweeps begin he’ll be on the air.
That means. Johnston is going back to doing weekend evening news. And our favorite hottie, JOnathan Novak will be stuck with Saturday mornings, and ocassionally filling in for any of the other three mets.
Thanks J
Those of you that have followed know I hopped around from the Miami/Ft. Lauderdale market to Palm Beach, and back again to Miami/Ft Lauderdale. Well now it looks like Orlando’s TV market might get added here. Going to look at houses this weekend since it turns out prices here go up and up while quality is going down, and Orlando still has some room to grow. 3 hours drive …. eeesh …. someone hire me a cheffeur and a limo.
