By Kevin Eck 

Lauren Taylor is leaving WOWT in Omaha, Nebraska after five years.

Taylor announced the news on social media by saying she’d announce her next move later, but was getting out of the business and staying in Omaha.

“For the last five years, it’s been a privilege and an honor to deliver the news as WOWT’s Evening Anchor to you, the viewers of Omaha‘s Metro,” she wrote. “Thank you so much for entrusting me to share your stories — It’s been a rewarding position to fulfill and I feel so grateful to have worked alongside some of the hardest working journalists in the industry.”
