@darreldrowland Congratulations…and thanks for your decades of work.

[Jim Otte @JOtteWHIO]

@andy_chow So this guy…is awesome. So many stories. So many long days and nights working for all of us trying to figure out what’s going on. Thank you for that and good luck in the future.

@ReporterBush This video from the press conference helps show what happened. As a reporter I did countless live shots like this and never had any trouble.

@tomwsyx6 Beyond disturbing.

[Jim Otte @JOtteWHIO]

@tomwsyx6 Watch this closely.

[Jim Otte @JOtteWHIO]

@darreldrowland Congrats. You’ll be great.

@darreldrowland Darrel… So sorry to hear the news. As a Dispatch subscriber since 1984 I thank you for your many years of service. You made our community and our state a better place to live. Good luck in the future. Take a moment to relax before launching your next adventure.

[Jim Otte @JOtteWHIO]

@JBedellWHIO @whiotv @IRE_NICAR Looking forward to more of your investigative work.
Keep it up.

[Jim Otte @JOtteWHIO]

@KaylaCourvell Keep up the good work …you are doing great!

[Jim Otte @JOtteWHIO]

@brinaylor Thank you for all you’ve done for us… going way back to your time at the Ohio Statehouse and then on to NPR. Good luck on your next adventure.

[Jim Otte @JOtteWHIO]

@ARobbinsTV @nbc4i Good luck on your next adventure…and glad you’re sticking close to home.
So talented… and managed to keep your sense of humor after covering the Statehouse during such a difficult time in history.

We just recorded this week’s edition of WHIO Reports - it’s all about all things @WrightPattAFB. My thanks to 88th ABW Commander, Col. Patrick Miller, as well as Jeff Hoagland (@Hoag8) and Elaine Bryant from @daytonregion for joining us! Sunday morning at 11:30 @whiotv.

[Jim Otte @JOtteWHIO]

So thankful to have the support of my great WHIO-TV colleagues led by Cheryl McHenry and James Brown as I move to retirement. Cheryl has a story about my 33 years at the station coming up at 5 pm today.

[Jim Otte @JOtteWHIO]

If it wasn’t for Bill Cohen, I would have never landed at the Statehouse. It was great to learn from the best in the business.
And all these years later, so thankful that the Statehouse Bureau is today the gold standard for broadcast coverage of Statehouses nationwide.

[Karen Kasler @karenkasler]

And another note of appreciation: our Ohio Public Radio and TV Statehouse News Bureau of @joingles, @andy_chow, @stateofohioshow and I would likely not be here doing this if it weren't for @JOtteWHIO and our retired colleague Bill Cohen, who helped start it back in 1980

[Jim Otte @JOtteWHIO]

After 43 years in the news business, including 39 years covering the Ohio Statehouse and 33 years at WHIO-TV I am officially retired starting today. Thanks so much to everyone who helped me along the way of this incredible journey.

[Jim Otte @JOtteWHIO]
