Today marks the last day for longtime Washington, D.C. morning news anchor Allison Seymour at FOX 5 DC WTTG-TV. She has anchored the Fox Morning News/Good Day DC for many years and arrived at the station as a general assignment reporter in 1999. A retrospective report of her career at FOX 5 is included in her farewell at the bottom of the page.
Also today Allison’s husband veteran radio personality Marc Clarke released a video on a number of topics. One of those topics is reinventing oneself. He also spoke about his most recent release from Howard University’s 96.3 WHUR along with his wife as afternoon hosts on the station. They were paired together in February 2019. They exited the station on July 15, 2020.
Ratings in the afternoon were reportedly down in the 25-54 demo, however the station itself finished second in the DMV in the most recent overall ratings. The afternoons in D.C.are dominated by Donnie Simpson over at Majic 102.3/92.7. The Frank Ski Show re-launched this week at WHUR. He was last on the air there in 2015.
Here are Marc’s thoughts. Most times radio personalities don’t get an opportunity or are hesitant to express their thoughts after a firing.
