I am SO very disappointed in the loss of Kelly from WJAR. Her professional but friendly presentation of the weather has been my “go to” since she joined the station & it has been very disappointing to see her diminished air time over the years. Truly a loss and one that will result in lost revenue for the station. Stupid, stupid move on their part to do this to such a great professional . Her smile alone was worth watching for!

To WJAR - NBC 10 !! Kelly Bates is the BEST Meteorologist on TV !!! Have you lost your minds ??? I don't understand how you dismiss and not pay attention to her talent ?? Why can't you see she plays a major roll in the success of this news station? Really !!! You actually let her go !!! Return Kelly Bates to her normal Meteorological time slots and renew her FULL TIME contract, If not I will no longer be WJAR - NBC 10 viewer. You can bet on that !!! Sincerely, Ra Nae M Souza

If it is true Kelly was let go because she doesn’t fit Sinclair’s view of a woman than I will no longer watch your news station

I considered WJAR the channel of New England. Loved Kelly's wit, humor and excellent forecasts. Sinclair Group should be ashamed of the way they treated this lady. Bring Kelly back or I'm no longer tuning into channel 10!!

Love Kelly! This is total discrimination. She is a female and if any other company did this they would be facing EEOC

Unless you bring Kelly back full time I will be watching channel 12. My DVR is already programed to tape this weekend . No Kelly no channel 10. Cur budget get rid of Rosie who does traffic with her tight low cut dresses. No thank you

Kelly Bates is professionally competent and personally genuine. A considerable asset to the station in its proclaimed intention to be "the team you trust". If WJAR needs to cut payroll, start with Dan Jaehnig. He routinely garbles important names and descriptions. His tone is usually breezy and trivial when it needs to be focused and informative. He has negative gravitas as a news anchor.
