Latina Anchor Gets the Boot From CBS

There is no longer a Latina in the main anchor chair at any of the major television networks.

CBS’s Early Morning Show has just fired Maggie Rodríguez, the only Latina main anchor for a network morning show. Rodríguez's firing is part of a massive overhaul of CBS' morning news broadcast team that included firing Rodríguez's co-anchor Harry Smith and weather forecaster, Dave Price.

Replacing Rodríguez and Smith as the morning show's new anchors are Chris Wragge and Erica Hill, who worked together anchoring CBS’ Saturday-morning show.
