Cincinnati native Lauren Minor revealed Friday how and why she abruptly left WXIX-TV last month after five years in a Facebook post.

“On July 8th, I was informed by management that they no longer wanted to continue contract negotiations on a new deal. Additionally, I was informed that my services were no longer needed. I spent the rest of the summer enjoying time with my family at home,” says Minor, a Northern Kentucky University graduate.

Minor made the comment on social media at midnight, immediately after her Fox 19 contract expired. She also announced that she’ll soon start anchoring evening newscasts at WLEX-TV in Lexington, Ky.
