Randy Price, the country’s first openly gay news anchor and the face of the evening news on Boston’s WHDH-TV (Channel 7) has signed off.
The Boston Globe reported that price told friends and co-workers Friday that he reached a “mutual agreement” with the station’s owner, Ed Ansin, to leave his post after 12 years.
His last newscast was Wednesday night. Price had a contract with WHDH until 2012.
WHDH moved Kim Khazei to co-anchor with Frances Rivera on Channel 7’s 10 p.m. newscast, the Globe reported.
