Arias switches stations, gets prime anchor job

September 15, 2008 by Veronica Villafañe

Erika Arias today begins a new job, anchoring the new 11pm news on Tribune’s WTIC-Fox 61 in Hartford, CT. And that’s just what she was looking for when she left WFSB in August. She had been weekend anchor and reporter at the CBS affiliate in the same city since 2006.

In early September, she told the Hartford Courant why she left the station: “I report during the week and anchor on the weekends and wanted a schedule where I would not have to work weekends.” At that time, she said she wanted to stay in Connecticut as an anchor and was looking into some options. Well, it looks like the mother of two got her wish.

Erika has previously anchored and reported in Providence, Las Vegas and for Fox News in L.A.
