I’ve been watching NBC 10 since I was a kid and I grew up with Kelly. She was my weather mom. Guess I won’t be watching anymore.

I have been watching WJAR for well over 45 yrs. I have always liked Kelly's very informative weather reports and I am very disappointed the she is no longer with WJAR. I will be looking for my news elsewhere.

I think it's terrible and I have no use for Sinclair personnel policies. Time to change channels.

She was a breathe of fresh air. For those of us older and plumper viewers it was so nice to see someone we could relate to. She has a fantastic personality.

It is time for her to retire gracefully. I would hope she received a retirement package.

Turn to 10 now devotes more time to Weather alerts than it does news. Wondering if I would keep watching it. Now Kelly Bates is not doing weather so that pretty much cinches it. There have been quite a few personnel changes recently. What's next - drop Patrice Wood?!

I don’t know why she would come back, but I want you to hear our voices!

She has always been treated poorly. I guess her multiple Best of RI wins mean nothing even though Sinclair 10 promotes this annual event shamelessly.

Bring back Kelly Bates. Not fair what you are doing. I will watch another channel if she doesn't come back.

Unless an employee fails to do his or her job as required, no company, especially WJAR, should terminate that person. Kelly Bates has been a staple on the news and is admired by many viewers. I am deeply disappointed that WJAR would do such a thing to her.
