This just in, and as far as we know, exclusive to OMW – at least on the Ohio end:
WOIO/19 “19 Action News” weekend sports anchor David Pingalore is leaving the Raycom Media Cleveland CBS affiliate for Florida.
In his blog, Orlando Sentinel TV columnist Hal Boedeker writes that Pingalore is headed for Orlando, where he takes the top sports job at CBS affiliate WKMG/6.
Boedeker writes that Pingalore heads south later this month to become that station’s sports director.
Up here, Pingalore is second in the “Action News” sports department to Chuck Galeti, the long-time local sports personality who has also been heard on radio (WTAM/1100, WXRK/92.3).
Pingalore came to WOIO in 2005 after working six years in the Scranton/Wilkes-Barre PA market. It’s actually a return to Florida for him….his first TV internship was in Tampa, and his first on-air job was in Jacksonville…
