A familiar face will broadcast on the streets of Philadelphia this week.
Sheinelle Jones, who graduated to NBC News and her current 9-10 a.m. host stint on that networkâs âTodayâ from Channel 29âs local âGood Day Philadelphia," will report live from her hometown and former bailiwick through Friday as part of an ongoing series, âReopening Americaâ which involves a skein of big-city visits to show how the 2020 COVID shutdowns have affected those metropoles economically and psychologically and how they are beginning to recover.
Because of her deep roots here â Her father, C. Darnell Jones II, is a sitting judge on Philadelphiaâs Court of Common Pleas â Jones chose Philly as the first stop for her reports.
