I hope that Channel 10 has a darn good reason for this action. I can’t imagine what that might be. Kelly Bates is a class act!!

Kelly is one of the BEST that you have on your show. I can not believe she has been let go . There are many anchors that make mistakes and are just too silly ….you really need to clean up your act WJAR. Report new , get Kelly back on the air and polish up your anchors !

I have been watching channel 10 News almost exclusively since the late 1950s. This firing of Kelly Bates is the latest effort of Sinclairifing what is supposed to be local news into an extremely right mouthpiece for Sinclair's agenda. The things I am hearing come out the mouths people that I had, and I now think have wrongly done, admired for decades makes me feel very ashamed of them. Apparently they have put their integrity in the closet and are now bowing cowardly to the will of Sinclair. So now after all these decades of feeling I was getting fair and balanced just the news from these people, I now find that these same people are now merely puppet like mouthpieces for Sinclair's propaganda. It will be hard, but I have made the decision that I will no longer watch any channel 10 news broadcast. I will find another source for fair and accurate news. There's still reporters out there that value themselves enough to not give up their souls for a paycheck. The last straw for me was when I noticed that channel 10 is now actually showing clips clearly labeled "Fox". I never ever thought any of these long term anchors would lower themselves to such a level as they have done. Goodbye to NBC 10 news. I'm sure it won't be long before the only audience you have will be people not interested in real news reporting.

So disappointed in WJAR 10. Kelly’s expertise was always a pleasure to tune into. Her reports clear, concise and professional. Refreshing. Such a loss to her base of loyal followers. I will miss her always upbeat presentations and send her my recall of an Eleanor Roosevelt statement people can only treat you badly if you allow them to. May your next employer appreciate you the way your viewing public does.

If she was fired because of age or body type, that’s disgusting.

I enjoyed watching Kelly so much on the weekends. She’s so personable and likeable. I’ve watched Channel 10 news my whole adult life and probably won’t be watching anymore. So sad to let a competent and well liked person go. Stupid, really.

Kelly Bates is a "breath of fresh air!" Down-to-earth and always upbeat. Reports the weather in terms that a lay person can easily understand. Bring her back!!
