Barely two years after arriving at Champaign's WCIA, Annice McEwan is on the move. With the full support of her former employer.
McEwan starts next week at Louisville's WDRB, a Fox affiliate. She joins a six-person sports staff as a reporter. She will also have increased anchor duties.
McEwan, 24, came to WCIA in May 2016. It was her first job after graduating from Oklahoma State.
"Now that I am leaving, I'm like 'Oh, man. I'm really going to miss some of the people that I met here and the corn fields and the Illini fans," McEwan said, "They're a special breed because they've put up with so much heartache.
