Peggy’s back!
July 22, 2021Peggy Finnegan has returned to the “Double Ones” with special coverage of the Olympics which begin Friday, July 23. Back in February when Peggy was a guest on the PBRTV Podcast, she said she was planning on sticking around at WPXI (11) for special projects and they had been discussing the coverage of the Olympics which were delayed a year due to the pandemic.
The latest WPXI promo shoot was taken on a closed Roberto Clemente (Sixth Street) Bridge. The anchor team shows recent hire, Susan Koeppen, who will anchor the 4 PM newscast beginning in September, and Finnegan as “Anchor Emeritus”.
