Cheryl McHenry, Dayton's Anchor Woman!

EP # 113: For 43 years Cheryl McHenry has crafted an impressive body of work for the #1 rated CBS affiliate in the country at WHIO TV. Host Dan Edwards caught up with this 9 time Emmy award winning anchor/investigative reporter as she shares some of her most impactful stories and those who have influenced her prolific career. In a rare interview, she also talks about her humble beginnings, the loss of her mother at an early age and the state of journalism today. It's a very open conversation from a very private person that will give you insight into her world of broadcasting and beyond.
We also talk about many of the most heart wrenching and dramatic stories she's covered, both in the field and behind the anchor desk, including the Oregon District mass shootings, the tragic shooting of Det. Jorge Del Rio and the deadly Memorial Day tornado outbreak in 2019.
