With the departure of reporter Walter Smith-Randolph, WKRC-TV has only two Black journalists on newscasts, anchors John Lomax and Kyle Inskeep.
But help is on the way at Channel 12, which was publicly criticized by the Greater Cincinnati Association of Black Journalists two months ago, while two Black journalists at WCPO-TV are being promoted to weekend
Good Morning Tri-State newscasts.
Channel 12 has hired Dayton reporter-weekend anchor Courtney Wheaton from Sinclair sister stations WKEF-TV and WRGT-TV. Wheaton, president of the Dayton chapter of the National Association of Black Journalists, will start as a reporter here June 1, after the May ratings sweeps end, says Jon Lawhead, Channel 12 general manager.
