WESH Anchors Back Together Again

Roger Simmons, February 6, 2006

Marc Middleton, who is leaving WESH at the end of the month after 18 years at the station, is teaming up with former Channel 2 anchor Andrea Coudriet to form a media relations company.

Middleton Coudriet Media Group already has its first client —Tavistock Cup, the annual Isleworth vs. Lake Nona golf competition that is televised internationally on The Golf Channel.
"We are thrilled to be working with an internationally respected company like the Tavistock Group," Middleton said in a news release. "We feel like we’ve made a hole in one off the first tee."

Added Coudriet: "The Tavistock Cup will provide the perfect opportunity to demonstrate what we can do. This event deserves a lot of attention. We’re anxious to help tell this story."

Middleton is leaving WESH after joining the station the 1980s and has served as sports director, news anchor and business and technology reporter. Coudriet left the WESH anchor desk in 1996 and has become one of Central Florida’s most successful event organizers and fundraisers.
