“That applies to Brent Solomon, who has been in the TV news business for two decades as a reporter and anchor, gaining a reputation as a newsroom leader and strong reporter,” said Holliday. “Brent has repeatedly said he’s excited to learn about St. Louis and tell stories that make an impact.”

Before working at WWBT, Solomon worked as a reporter in Miami, Tampa, Fla., Little Rock, Ark., Albany, Ga. and Savannah, Ga.
