Todd Gross let Go??

[David Tomm]

The timing on this one really sucks for Todd.   CBS4 apparently just 
hired a new chief meteorologist from outside the market who hasn't 
started yet.  You have to wonder if WHTH waited until that announcement 
before blowing out Todd so that they wouldn't have to compete against 
him.  Channel 5 is already overloaded with veteran Boston TV 
meteorologists. I doubt that 25 or 56, both lower budget operations 
gunning for younger viewers, would be interested in his services.  If 
he stays in the area, his best chance would be at NECN, where has-been 
TV newspeople go to die (RD Saul, Chet Curtis, Tom Ellis...)
