WBKO 50th Anniversary Interview: Leslie Priest

WBKO-TV Is celebrating its 50th anniversary this year!

And to build up to the big moment we're bringing you visits with some of the familiar faces you've grown to know over the years.

Leslie Priest was a producer, reporter, and anchor from 1997 to 2000.

She tells us what it was like to deal with the pressures and effects of working in a TV newsroom as a young journalist fresh out of college.

Leslie is now married with a nine-year-old and a set of twins. She and another WBKO alumnus, Carrie Apple, own a video production company. And, Leslie is a breast cancer survivor!
