Anchor Yaima Crespo out at Telemundo 47

October 31, 2017 by Veronica Villafañe

Yaima CrespoAfter almost 10 years at WNJU Telemundo 47, anchor Yaima Crespo is no longer with the station. Her last day was yesterday.

A WNJU spokesperson would not address the reason for her departure, issuing a two-line statement: “Yaima Crespo is no longer employed by Telemundo 47. We wish Yaima the very best in her future endeavors.”

Crespo was most recently anchoring the 5 and 5:30 pm weekday newscasts with station newcomer Edgardo del Villar.

With her exit, Nilda Rosario, who previously co-anchored the 5 pm with Crespo, will again anchor the 5 to 6 pm newscasts in addition to her 6 and 11 pm duties.

Since Crespo joined WNJU-47 in 2008, she worked as a general assignment reporter, morning and weekend anchor, before moving to the weekday afternoon newscasts.

She previously worked as an anchor for “Tu Pulso” a Sunday morning public affairs program on Telefutura. Before that, she spent 5 years as a producer and reporter for Univision in Miami.
