WFSB's Non-Perez Policy

1034

From WFSB Anchor Dennis House’s blog, The Hartfordite, in which he writes about Hartford Mayor Eddie Perez who faces corruption charges:

Here at Channel 3 we are not allowed to make public appearances with the Mayor at this time because of his pending trial.     News anchors often serve as emcees at various events, and as part of our job, we occasionally introduce dignitaries.   We will not be appearing with the Mayor in an emcee capacity unless he is acquitted.   Other television stations undoubtedly have similar policies.   I have turned down invitations, including an offer to emcee Hartford’s 375th birthday celebration.
