SUE SIMMONS
Last year, long-time WNBC-4 news anchor Sue Simmons was let go from the New
York City TV station when her contract expired, ending a very long and colorful
tenure with the Live at Five broadcast.
From Wikipedia:
Sue Simmons (born May 27, 1942) is a former news anchor who was best known
for being the lead female anchor at WNBC in New York City from 1980-2012. Her
contract with WNBC expired in June 2012 and WNBC announced that it would not
renew it. Her final broadcast was on June 15, 2012, in which she received
farewells from long time co-workers, as well as from numerous sports figures and
celebrities.
TV DIMENSION:

"Exiled" (the 'Law & Order' spin-off TV movie)
TV DIMENSION:

AS SEEN IN:

O'BSERVATIONS:
In Earth Prime-Time, Sue Simmons was the newswoman at WNBC-4 just as she
was in the Trueniverse - at least until June of last year. With the 'Law &
Order' franchise appearances, we saw her at that job. (Below is a behind the
scenes picture from one of her 'SVU' appearances.)
When she appeared at that empowered women's forum lunch, she seemed to have
some residual resentment about what happened to her.
And based on that '30 Rock' frame-grab, her televersion seemed to be hitting the
lunch-sauce a bit too much.....
Meanwhile, over in a still-undetermined alternate TV dimension, Sue Simmons bounced back from her firing at Channel 4 with a new job at Channel 10.
BCnU!
