Sara Underwood’s last day at Fox 25 is tonight. The popular weekend anchor told Twitter today, “Goodbye Fox friends! Today is last day. Trading in anchor desk for full time mommy job. Spending QT with Emma before baby #2 arrives.”
After arriving at Fox 25 in 2008, Underwood helmed the anchor desk on weekend evenings and reported during the week. “It’s all about the family,” she tells the Herald, “It was a tough decision to make. For the last several years, I’ve worked weekends, nights and holidays–and I’ve missed out so much on my daughter’s life.”
As you may remember, Underwood landed at 25 after not having her contract renewed by WBZ in early 2008. No word yet from Fox 25 as to who will be replacing her.
Just read in the Herald that tonight (7/15) is Sara’s last night at Fox 25. She is leaving to spend time with family and await her new baby. Sara will be missed!
Indeed, she just tweeted the following: “Goodbye Fox friends! Today is last day. Trading in anchor desk for full time mommy job. Spending QT with Emma before baby #2 arrives.”
No more Shannon & Sara on Sunday nights. My weekends are officially ruined.
According to the Herald, Shannon Mullaire has been promoted to weekend anchor.
One of the funnier highlights during Sara’s time at Fox 25: when she accidentally let the term “brain fart” slip while on the air.
Best of luck to Sara. I hope she enjoys the extra time with her family.
So not a fan of Shannon Mullaire. I think she is absolutely horrendous and now she’s been promoted. Yeesh! Fox 25 is testing my loyalty
Sara Underwood was on Fox 25 news last night. A change of heart???
She fills in from time to time when Fox25 is short-staffed. It’s probably easier and less expensive for management to have a fill-in anchor available than having to finance a reporter to perform extra duties on the anchor desk.
Thanks, I hadn’t seen her before….
