Savannah tells Orlando Sentinel columnist Scott Maxwell that she and her son left Orlando and headed to California.

Former morning anchor Amy Kaufeldt will helm Good Day and continue with her 5 p.m. anchor duties …  WESH’s 10 p.m. news on WKCF-CW 18 debuts Monday night. … Knott says that despite WESH’s move — and WFTV’s programming of its news on WRDQ-27, WOFL has no plans to add news to its sister station, WRBW-My 65. … Chris Blanton at FLNewscenter.com explains how he came across an online for Central Florida News 13 — while visiting LATimes.com.
