Andrea Isom: It s not about me. Reporter Andrea Isom, a lively, distinctive personality in local news, has left WXYZ after four years. Isom, who previously worked for Fox 2 for 11 years, told Deadline Detroit on Sunday that she decided in June to pass on renewing her contract at Channel 7. She said she s sticking around Detroit and going on her own to tell bigger stories through video. An updated LinkedIn page describes her as a digital storyteller, video production journalist and producer. I will do that on whatever platform is available, she said. Digital is where it is. Streaming is where it is, and if that s a network, it s a network. I m open to seeing where the projects that I m passionate about land and where they fit. Because it s about the stories, it s not about me.
