NBC10 lets another anchor go, Dawn Timmeney was not renewed

POSTED: Wednesday, December 19, 2012, 8:52 AM

NBC 10 sheds another anchor.

Dawn Timmeney, who anchored the 4 and 5:30 p.m. newscast worked her last day at the station on Friday.

Timmeney, who worked at NBC10 for nearly 12 years, was not renewed by the station, which we reported recently had also chosen not to renew Tim Lake.

NBC 10 news director Anzio Williams emailed staff another generic statement about a veteran staffer's departure, as he did after Lake's final newscast.

"In her 12 years at NBC 10 Dawn Timmeney has worn many hats in different dayparts. Please join me in wishing Dawn the very best as she moves forward.

Timmeney did not return a request for comment.

    The person they should get rid of is Renee Chenault-Fattah. She flubs every line she reads and has to give a pathetic little comment after every story. Do we really need to hear her say "That's a shame" and shake her head after every sad story? Timmeney wasn't bad and deserves to stay.

    stacey weaver, terry ruggels, and now dawn n tim. ge still owns 49% of nbc and ge is known for treating employees bad. bill henley better watch out n I'm sure michelle grossman is in their sights. i switched from 10 to 6 because of the nbc tactics.

    el biotcho (and your 100 monikers): listen to BT like you calling someone out for using the same stuff when all you do is make reference to caucasian or white. But in typical biotch fashion, you point fingers. And you ASSume I am white. You'd be surprised DB. And at least I am not a p*&&^ who gets people's comments deleted.

    Deuce Bag - funny that plant life such as you with comments that may fall short of a 5-th grader would call ANYONE out. Get back to the grille, little person.

    Dawn's photo looks like it's from 1993. Lots of highway miles, if you know what i mean.

    NBC10 had to make room for the better looking Nefer Tee-Tee Jaquez.

    More cost-cutting at NBC10. They are brutal.

    I like her. She was easy to watch and did her job professionally. Sorry to see her go. Apparently, she got to old for them at NBC10.

    I can't tell the difference from one newscaster to another. If you lined them all up and said match the names to the faces I would fail. I have too much to do in my life to remember who reads the news. Unless a face is remarkable (Adam Joseph- he's a cutie) or around forever, Jim Gardner, I see them as talking heads. As long as they can pronounce Schuykill, Shackamaxon & Tacony Palmyra, as long as they enunciate properly, it doesn't matter to me who reads the teleprompter. They could use a computer programed voice for all I care.
