More than 40 years ago, a young Jim Nantz interviewed for a sports anchor job at CBS Philadelphia. He didn’t get it.
Our station would go on to hire a local reporter out in Florida named Ukee Washington instead.
While Nantz went on to become a beloved staple in sports broadcasting, Ukee grew to become the heartbeat of CBS News Philadelphia.
@DILLIGAF2003 They’re our employer and we’d like to keep it that way. You’ve said this before- now please stop so you’re not putting Craig or myself in a potentially compromising situation. Thanks
Sorry to say it again, but an internet line got cut somewhere in SWFL that is making it impossible to broadcast currently. I've been told there is a chance we are back on air today, but I think it'll be tomorrow (trying to be honest).
Craig is in here with a ton of hot takes looking for somewhere to throw them.
