Pretty sure that's just auto-generated. 

The giveaway is this: "As an anchor, she makes around $38,647 per year which, is an average salary of an anchor in the United States."

Re: Farrah Nasser

Farah Nasser will be returning to Global News on Monday, May 16  I thought Tracy Tong did a great job filling in for Farah and I wish her all the best in her future endeavours.

Indeed, Farah returned last night at 5:30. Although there was a welcome-back from the team, and subtle references made to family support, no definitive explanation was offered. I have no problem with it remaining private.

She stepped back in as if she had never left.

Did Tracy leave Global, or did she go back to her old role of anchoring the 11 PM show?

Tracy Tong gave a report on illegal guns coming in from Michigan on this evening's Global Toronto newscast.

Re: Farrah Nasser

Just announced by Farah on twitter - she's leaving Global News to anchor Global National on the weekends.


"I’ve been telling stories in the city I call home for 2 decades, now I get to cover the country I love  I've accepted a position as weekend anchor at GlobalNational. I’ll miss my globalnewsto crew but excited to reach a wider, national audience. Elated for next chapter to begin"

Re: Farrah Nasser

I don't watch Global News. If I watch anything, it's usually CHCH, but even that is maybe once a week.

Global should just move to a solo anchor format. Attention spans are short now, and you don't need Mr and Mrs Hometown at the desk.

I bet you Tracy Tong will replace Farah, and the usual anchor shuffle will follow with other shows.

If they do go with a single anchor, the 5:30 show needs to have a different anchor, and give Alan just the 6 PM.
