…and it’s Heather Hegedus, who has been with the station as a general assignment reporter. She replaces Jessica Schneider who left to concentrate full-time on her future career in the law.

  1. Interesting choice. She leapfrogs over reporters who’ve been there longer. Could they be reacting to Fox61’s moves? Fighting babe with babe? Makes you wonder. Especially if you’ve seen the photo of Heather on Flickr, posted by a Courant reporter.

  2. I was thinking the same thing. And not to be a conspiracy theorist, but isn’t funny how they got rid of 2 out of the only 3 African-Americans at that station this year? First Alyssa Chaney (sp?), now Leon Collins. I think Tina Martin is the only one left that I can think of. They’re all quality reporters in my book.

  3. I don’t know if I’d go there. I think Leon’s problems stemmed from his arrest in New Haven. But I don’t think we’ll ever know the real story.

    I did notice that they glammed up Katy Zachry for the Saturday night newscast. They must be feeling the heat from Fox61.

  4. I did’nt mean she was not a babe to all men but what I meant was the stereo typical babe that alot of people would put in the babe category . You have to admit more and more news is looking like a playboy convention I want my news carried with smart intelligent news persons. With out question she is a beautiful women sorry I did’nt mean to offend anyone most all of Tina. I look forward to the knew project they gave her to do. Thats what I love about channel 3 when they know where, how and when to use a great talent
