DC Anchor Goes Missing
Added 2025-12-02 06:00:07 +0000 UTCTV stations love to talk about transparency in both local and national government. But, when it comes to their station, the rules are a bit different.
Especially, when the station is owned by The Firm.
Without a doubt, the Fox O&Os are the worst when it comes to be transparent, even on minor issues. Employees at Fox O&)s tell FTVLive that the Fox publicity department tries to instill fear into their staff, so they won't talk.
There is internet chatter that over at WTTG, the Fox O&O in DC that Morning Anchor Stephen Graddick has been missing from the air.
FTVLive has gotten emails and there is this post from Reddit.

Checking Graddick's social media, he still has himself listed as the morning Anchor at the station.

He also has this post pinned to the top of his page.

The post he has pinned is from when he joined WTTG in early November of 2023.
Hmmmmmm?
Let's see, he joined the station in early November of 2023 and he hasn't been seen on the air since early November 2025. Sounds to me like someone was on a two year contract and it was either not renewed, or Graddick did not like the new offer.
Of course, it would be very easy for the Fox O&O to say that Stephen Graddick is no longer with the station and we thank him for his contribution to Fox 5.
But, this is The Firm we're talking about. The viewers know the pattern.

The viewers deserve better but the Fox publicity department doesn't care about the viewers. They just care that the secrets inside Fox Television don't get out.
