WCPO Promises to Keep Doing Stories About Veterans After Craig McKee Moves to Arizona
Cincinnati ABC affiliate WCPO told its viewers that it will continue its commitment to veteran-focused storytelling. The promise comes after longtime anchor Craig McKee said he was leaving the station. The station said some viewers expressed concerns over whether it would continue coverage of veteran-related issues and stories, which is what McKee focused on in his reporting, especially through his series Homefront. The station said it plans 'to continue shining a light on the challenges and triumphs of veterans across the Tri-State and encourage community involvement.' McKee is moving to KNXV in Phoenix, but said he will stay on at WCPO through June. His reporting highlighted issues ranging from veteran homelessness to mental health support.

'Thank you Cincinnati': Longtime WCPO anchor announces departure from station
After 10 years with WCPO 9 News, Cincinnati anchor Craig McKee announced his departure from the television station. McKee has accepted a reporting position at Scripps-owned ABC affiliate KNXV in Phoenix, Arizona, returning to his wife's home state for the first time since 2002 to focus on family, he said in a Facebook post on May 29. "This position will allow me to continue focusing on family, including our granddaughter in Arizona, while also continuing the work I love in journalism," McKee wrote. The veteran anchor expressed his gratitude for the people of Cincinnati, stating that the city has given him more than he could have even imagined. "Thank you Cincinnati, for allowing me to be part of your story." McKee wrote. WCPO shared McKee's post on its own Facebook page, and said, "We love you, Craig. And we will miss you." Mckee is now the fourth Cincinnati anchor/reporter leaving their station to pursue other opportunities this month, following in the footsteps of WCPO meteorologist Brandon Spinner, FOX19 meteorologist Frank Marzullo and Local 12 anchor Annie Brown.
