Diana Henry joining Madison TV station


.
Diana Henry, former co-anchor for the 6 and 10 p.m. news on WXOW-TV in La Crosse, has been named the evening co-anchor for ABC affiliate WKOW-TV in Madison.

Today will be her last day as manager of corporate communications and marketing at Logistics Health Inc. in La Crosse, a job she has held since February 2007. Henry left WXOW-TV for the LHI job. She had joined the La Crosse station in 2002.
Henry said Wednesday she will co-anchor the 6 and 10 p.m. news broadcasts at the Madison station, which like WXOW-TV is owned by Quincy Newspapers Inc.

“The opportunity came up and I couldn’t resist,” she said. “Television journalism is my passion, and I’m excited to get back into the field.

“Living in La Crosse the last six years has been a thrill,” Henry said. “It’s a wonderful community.” The area’s residents “are just so giving,” she said.

" Well it seems to me that she treats her life equally all around. Treats each job like another man. Looks like shell have to find desert at a different popular lunch spot. Sounds like a good 10pm story to me. "

" The only PR she did was calling the Tribune to tell them she is leaving. Why is this worthy of a news story? As some have mentioned, she is very immature and arrogant. She is only cares about herself.
Good Luck in Madison, maybe you will have to actually do some work. Remember, you're only going from a third class TV market to a second class TV market, you're not Dan Rathers......so stop acting like it. Besides, Dan's hair is real. "

" GOOD LUCK DIANA HENRY. CONGRATS ON YOUR NEW POSITION. (not that she has the time to read these blogs.) "

" I love that andy k posts, "Some people go to places called "jobs" during the day". Which apparently would encompass everyone, except andy k! As he makes his 1:13PM post. So either he works nights or I can think of no other reason than he works for the School System, or he works for LHI or at Riverside? I'll bet on the latter, reflecting on his past posts. "

" The fact that LHI remained mute during the Mayors statement of '700 employees' and the dual statement of a 'warming kitchen' was a mistake and a blemish that will adhere to LHI and Riverside quite probably forever. So either she was bad at their job, or she was bridled by those above her. Not only will these mishandling of statements and loss of proper damage control affect LHI and how citizens view them, those same statements will probably lose a re-election bid for Skippy. Either way she is lucky to move on. Also if I held her position during her stay the bruises at riverside would not be so pronounced. PS- I only laugh at regular Tribune poster 'Kami' trying to slip on the decorum cart as it passes. GMAB "

" andy k- There is a space in City Hall called the Council Chambers. Where I spoke numerously about Riverside Center and the shenanigans. That is where LHI's PR person would stand up and glare at me after speaking. Where she should have smiled or averted her eyes. Which only reflected her inexperience and immaturity at her job as there quite frankly was no upside to do so. Ms. Henry might have something to do with Mr. Weber bestowing a million to the stadium, and she might have had a shoulder behind the Vet ride with Tommy at the head of the pac. Although both had little affect and did little to change minds already made up. "

" Great post andyk. I served her on occasion at my previous job and she was a doll to help. She was very friendly and easy to chat with. I wish much success in her new Madison post and I thank her for sincerity while she was her. Good luck Diana, I will miss you! "

" To all bloggers: Some people go to places called "jobs" during the day. The idea is that you work, and your "employer" gives you money. Sometimes, if you're good at a so-called "job", someone offers you a different one - maybe even a better one. Then you have to decide if you want your current "job" or this new "job". Leaving your old "job" for a new one usually doesn't imply that you did anything wrong at the old one (that is something different, called "getting fired", which is a term some of you are probably familiar with). The proper thing to say to someone when he or she gets a new "job" is "Congratulations" or "I wish you well" or something like that. You all should look into getting "jobs" some time. "

" Never heard from her at LHI and LHI could have used some positive messages. "
