Carlos Vergara has left WTVJ and is now part of the RCN News in English team as a reporter, or contributor as Brian Andrews referred to him.
And here is his demo reel he posted on YouTube:

So RCN’s English newscast with Brian Andrews is on and the promos are ready. It July 1st. I think the newscast will be updated twice daily.
From Brian’s blog post it looks like they’ll be using the very nice FlowPlayer which has a video embedding feature.
And he’s staying in Colombia, so that’s all cleared up.

Update 6.16.08: Okay so Brian left a message saying this isn’t accurate, and that he didn’t mention KYW on his blog which is true and I appologise.
He has signed with RCN and the English newscast starts June 30th.
The reason for jumping the gun like that was a blog on June 13th about flying to Philly to “explore a job opportunity”, link below.

Google’s Blog Alerts emailed me the above mentioned blog postat 12:34pm on June 13th tripping the WFOR keyword so I checked it out and then along with the person who left the tip I jumped the gun and assumed wrongly that Philly meant KYW. I was wrong and I apologise, no harm meant.

Four months after leaving WFOR CBS 4 for Colombia Brian Andrews has landed a permanent gig with Colombia’s largest TV network RCN.
He’ll produce a series called “Colombia through my eyes” and will be “basically driving all over the country for the next two months, stopping off in small towns along the way, telling unique stories”.
Also, in a few months Brian will begin anchoring “Colombia Now” RCN’s first daily English-language newscast.
He’s also freelancing for Al-Jazeera and says on his blog Colombia’s Semana Magazine is interested in a daily web-based English newscast.
Brian Andrews signs off from WFOR tomorrow, Wednesday the 28th.
In the morning he’ll be on The Footy Show on WIOD 610 - sometime between 09 and 12pm. He leaves for Caracas on Friday.
And since he’s freelancing chances are high we’ll be seeing him on stations other than WFOR as well.
You can keep an eye on his big move at his new blog and site
A few people emailed saying word on the street among reporters the past several days was that Brian Andrews was fired or left WFOR.
Joan Fleischman’s column from yesterday’s Miami Herald confirms it. Brian Andrews has ditched WFOR two months after signing another 3-year contract with them. He’s selling everything and moving to Bogota, Columbia!
Crazy boy. He’ll take Spanish lessons and freelance before looking for a more serious job. His last day at WFOR is November 28.
