Technically, the station has many problems. There 10pm weekend news was a train wreck the other week. I actually felt sorry for the anchor continuously apologizing. There is plenty of news to cover in the area, just read The Morning Call or Lehigh Valley Live. But, WFMZ seems content with feature stories. It's much easier to watch WPVI for the big stories. Their morning news is written well. WFMZ is going through the motions.
They do have some good on-air talent. But, as the previous poster mentioned, they usually get picked up my larger markets. As far as their talent goes:
Eve Tannery - The best. Good at hard news and features. The runaway leader of the team.
Jaciel Cordoba - Dry, robotic style. Will Lewis has much more personality. But, Jaciel always looks good.
Matt Broderick - The best in their weather department.
Melanie Falcon - She is very boring an anchor. Nothing special, but the team has some fire.
Jim Vaughn - Lightweight at best. He is the 2015 Anchorman.
Wendy Davis - Works well with Rob. Loved her on political coverage.
Rob Vaughn - For the size station/market, he's a professional. He's the leader at night. They should pair him with Eve.
Ed Hanna - The weather guy you either love or hate.
Troy Hein - Excellent sports story teller. Very good. Makes sports action come alive. This guy is a star.
Bo Koltnow - Not a good weekend anchor. Good reporter.
Karin Mallett - Much better on the evening news.
Chandy Lowry - Very professional.
Jamie Stover - Their best reporter. Look for her at WPVI someday. She is good.
Jaccii Farris - They should let her anchor.
Will Lewis - He could anchor in the morning.
Rosa Duarte - Nothing memorable. I saw her fill in as an anchor once, it was college TV at it's best.
Perla Lopez - Nothing to get excited about.
Roberto Vinces - Great sports reporter. He does bring the show alive. Entertaining.
Hillary Lane - She has developed nicely. Solid reporting skills. She is going to move to a bigger market.
Keleigh Gibbs - She looks like she is putting together a Vimeo demo every night. Flashy/visual... not WFMZ. Just moving on.
Amanda VanAllen - Amazing. They have a winner.
Ryan Hughes - Solid reporter
It's just not PVI.
