Summary
Local 12 is cutting jobs and ending its weekend morning news show, but it’s not all bad news — they’re launching a new 3 PM weekday newscast in September to boost coverage.

Sinclair thanked departing staff while staying quiet on specifics, but Lillibridge confirmed his exit. Listen in comfort: Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
