east-tx-tv 105 Posted February 19 Share Posted February 19 (edited) A sad day at KXAS. Bobbie Wygant, who was a lifestyle/entertainment reporter, host, and even commercial pitch person back to the station's earliest days as WBAP, has passed. Bobbie had her own daytime midday show called Dateline for many years. She participated in the local Jerry Lewis telethon segments for several of the years that KXAS carried the telethon. She had a longer presence in Dallas-Fort Worth media than anyone else. Bobbie was 97, and will be missed. https://www.nbcdfw.com/news/local/trailblazing-nbc-5-reporter-bobbie-wygant-dies-at-97/3466101/ https://www.bobbiewygant.com Edited February 19 by east-tx-tv Link to story finally available to add 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
