38106chick's video: Donna Davis Interview Part 4 -- December 2008

@Donna Davis Interview (Part 4) -- (December 2008)
**For informational purposes only** December 9, 2008 is yet another day that will remain etched in Memphis media history. Fifteen WMC-TV staffers, including anchors Donna Davis and Bill Lunn, were terminated in a cost-cutting move by the station's parent company, Raycom Media. This is not unique in the news industry or ANY industry during the current recession. The city of Memphis, however, has a uniqueness of its very own... The media focus has mostly been on Ms. Davis, who anchored evening newscasts alongside mainstay Joe Birch. Davis had been an anchor with Action News 5 for nearly 15 years. Under normal circumstances, one would think it's because the evening anchors have worked together for so long. After all, Birch and Chief Meteorologist Dave Brown have both been with Action News 5 for over 30 years; sportscaster Jarvis Greer has over 20 years under his belt. However, most Memphians expect race to be at least implied in the equation, and _The Commercial Appeal_ columnist Wendi Thomas did not fail to disappoint with her December 14 commentary. Only Donna Davis knows how she really feels. On December 12, she visited WDIA's "The Bev Johnson Show" to give her side of the story... ***DISCLAIMER: This interview was taped from the internet audio and converted into a digital file. There is a minute or two missing from the interview; Clear Channel plays music during its breaks, so the start and stop times between commercials are not exact.
