Mikea Turner to Anchor at WTTG Washington

Mikea Turner joins WTTG Washington.

Mikea Turner will join WTTG Washington in February, and will anchor the weekday 5-6 a.m. news alongside Stephen Graddick. She will report for the 6-9 a.m. news, and will be part of Good Day DC from 9 to 11 a.m.. 

Turner will also co-host LION Lunch Hour with Erin Como at 11 a.m. 

She comes from WWBT Richmond, where she anchored the evening news. 

Known as Fox 5 DC, WTTG is owned by Fox. 

"I have been following Mikea's career for years,” said Paul McGonagle, WTTG VP and news director. “Bringing this dynamic journalist back to the DMV is a homecoming for Mikea and a home run for Fox 5."

Prior to her time in Richmond, Turner spent five years as weekend morning anchor at WUSA Washington. Previously, Turner was a multimedia journalist, reporter, fill-in news anchor, fill-in producer, and fill-in weather forecaster at WBOC Salisbury (MD). 

"The DMV is my home and I can't wait to pour back into the community that's helped shape me into who I am today by joining the incredible morning team at Fox 5," Turner said.
