(This career update on Ayah Galal of WFSB is offered in the form of a question from Scott Pelley of 60 Minutes. Because we can.)
Pelley: Ayah Galal. You’ve been with WFSB for six years. You’ve been an essential part of the team. You’ve broken barriers. The first woman to anchor a local newscast in Connecticut wearing hijab. One of the first in the country as a matter of fact. You have covered stories from one end of the state to the other. You know all the best coffee shops. There is no doubt you could go on if you wanted for as long as you want.
Galal: Yes.
Pelley: And yet, after all that hard work…all that success…you have decided not to renew your contract and you are leaving at the end of the month.
Galal: Yes.
Pelley: …and I wonder,…what’s next for Ayah Galal?
Galal: Stay tuned.
