BREAKING NEWS: WEWS ND Exits For Florida

UPDATE 2:39 PM 2/21/08: Hal Boedeker, TV writer for the "Orlando Sentinel", reports the Hyvonen hiring in Orlando on his "TV Guy" blog...

---------------------

OMW hears that Steve Hyvonen, news director of Scripps Cleveland ABC affiliate WEWS/5, has announced his resignation today from "NewsChannel 5".

We hear from sources at 3001 Euclid that Hyvonen has accepted a new job in Florida, where he has numerous family ties, and has worked in the past. He'll become news director of Orlando market CBS affiliate WKMG/6.

And...yes...that means he'll be working with former WOIO/19 "19 Action News" sports anchor/reporter David Pingalore, who's now the primary sports anchor for the Orlando station...
