WXIA Moves Anchor Cheryl Preheim from Mornings to Afternoons
WXIA morning anchor Cheryl Preheim is moving to the 4 p.m. newscast alongside Faith Jessie for the Atlanta NBC affiliate.
In a Facebook post, she told viewers about the change. She joined the station in 2016.
"I'll be enjoying a regular schedule - turning off the 2 AM alarm clock for a full night's sleep, along with breakfast, school drop-off, and staying up later at night with my family," she said. "Hope to see you for the news at 4 p.m. and for some exciting new projects on 11Alive+ that I'll share more about soon.'
This will be a reunion of sorts for Preheim and Jesse who anchored 11Alive's Olympic coverage together from Paris.
Jesse will continue anchoring 11Alive News at 4 and 5 p.m., as well as hosting The Georgia Vote, the station's Sunday political program.
The station said that Jonathan Martin will take over for Preheim on the station's morning show.
