Al Jazeera's American channel is going to close operations in April, due to
lower than expected ratings, and loss of advertising:

This doesn't affect too many of the ladies we track here,
but one notable one would be Nicole Mitchell, formerly of TWC, who is
now chief meteorologist at Al Jazeera America.

Given her contentious history with TWC, it's not too likely she'll return there,
so best of luck to Nicole in landing somewhere else before too long.

"Al-Jazeera's shut-ting down." :jetserl

Richelle Carey has been doing the late night news casts on Al Jazeera English so she might be staying.

Libby Casey -- formerly of C-SPAN and the public broadcasting station in my longtime home of Fairbanks, AK -- may probably be one of the few talent going back to where they started: local TV (there's a job opening at the Fox station here in Atlanta, which may or may not have been filled yet)!!!
