It is very clear the viewers love Kelly Bates! She is a real person that we can relate to. She is so kind and loved her job. The world is being replaced by young skinny perfect people. Disappointing. She has a family to support. It should matter what the viewers want. Bring back Kelly Bates!

Local channel 10 will not be the same without Kelly Bates. We Moms relate to her as do all good people. Bring her back home please.

Kelly Bates is the best at what she does and was an asset to WJAR. It's sad to see her go and I hope WJAR/Sinclair Broadcating will find a way to make a reasonable compromise and bring her back or possibly loose part of yours viewership and hopefully it'll be a large part and if not I'd hope to see another local outlet make Kelly Bates an offer she can't refuse. ✌

I have switched to ch 12. Very bad move to let Kelly go - she was the best.

Kelly Bates deserves to be treated with respect, and the recognition for excellence that comes with her many years of professional dedication in the field of broadcasting. She has done and outstanding job throughout her career with WJAR.

I won't watch WJAR unless Kelly is re-hired! There are too many middle aged men meteorologists and younger blondes out there. She's great and that's enough said!!!

I have been a loyal channel 10 viewer my entire adult life. I refuse to continue watching if Kelly is not back or at least offered a contract reflective of her fanfare and dedication to channel 10 and its viewers.
