KTHV Anchor/Reporter Quits TV News......

 

 

Today was Jordan Howington's last day on the air at KTHV/Channel 11/Little Rock.  She had only been in the news business for 7 years....and she is stepping away from it according to her FB page:

Hi, friends.

This is such a bittersweet post.

Over the past several months, I’ve been doing lots of praying. With a lot of thought, I’ve decided to make the most difficult decision of my life thus far to step away from the tv news business. For 7 years, I have poured my heart into sharing the most impactful stories of Arkansans. I’ve gone into the trenches with you, laughed with you, cried with you, and fought for you. And that’s been my greatest honor. I have met some of the finest people and have built relationships that will last a lifetime. I’m truly grateful for Arkansas State University, KAIT-8, and THV11 who’ve helped mold me into the communicator, the go-getter, and the problem-solver that I am. I will miss hanging with the greatest viewers on the air 5-days of the week. It’s sad, but my decision comes with great joy. I will be joining the Cooper-Anthony Mercy Child Advocacy Center team. I’ll get to advocate for abused children in Central Arkansas. It is an incredible opportunity that I’m thrilled to take on. This opportunity will also allow me to spend more time with my family, especially my precious daughter Stausia. THV-11 will always be my home because the people there are family through and through. I’m so thankful for my team’s support through this transition, and my boss Shayla who has been my biggest cheerleader for many years. My husband is my rock and has shown much grace, love, and support through this emotional ride! I’m a blessed girl. My last day at Channel 11 will be Saturday October 9, so please join in! In the meantime, we’ve got more stories to share! Below are some memorable pictures throughout the past 7 years of my career. I love you, Arkansas. This Is Home.
