WPTV–WFLX anchor Shannon Cake will stop anchoring for FOX affiliate WFLX.
“It’s something that we worked on for months,” Cake told Gossip Extra‘s Jose Lambiet who first reported the news. “My parents are getting older and my dad had a health scare recently. That was a wake up call.”
“She will continue on as an afternoon anchor for us,” Lloyd Bucher, station manager for NBC affiliate WPTV, told TVSpy. “We think the world of Shannon and are very pleased to have her at WPTV as an integral part of our anchor team.”
