Jones exits KDKA

Keith Jones, co-anchor of the KDKA-TV (2) morning news, will be leaving the station April 3. He has accepted a new job at WTSP-TV in Tampa, Florida. Jones tells the Post-Gazette, “My family and I adore Pittsburgh and are sad to leave, but the economic environment we’re in indicated it was time to move on. I’m incredibly blessed to have had a couple of job offers.”

Jones has been at KDKA since 2005, but previously worked at WPXI as a weekend anchor and reporter. In between he spent two years at WOWK-TV in Charleston, West Virginia.
