Hello, everybody. Thanks for checking out our new newsroom blog. Along with the other anchors here at WECT, I’ll be attempting to give you a frequent look at what we’re doing inside the newsroom to prepare for our newscasts. Feel free to comment or add your thoughts either through the blog or to me directly at jhanchett@wect.com
Today, we’re following up on the events surrounding the murder of New Hanover County Detention Officer Tarica Pulliam. We want to know more about the events that led deputies to Anthony Bowen’s location in Onslow County.
We’re also looking for couples getting married or having babies on this 08-08-08. If you know of anyone taking advantage of this rare date, please e-mail me immediately.
This is also opening night for the Olympics and you’ll see plenty of coverage of the festivities in Beijing and some local angles as well on WECT News at 5 and WECT News at 6.
This is also Food for Thought night on our newscasts and WECT Sports Director Bob Bonner should have highlights of former Hoggard kicker Connor Barth’s strong performance last night in an NFL exhibition game.
That’s a first look at this Friday Inside the Newsroom.
