The whole point of this petition was to Promote her to doing the weather at night, not the news 5 days a week, somebody did not read the whole thing. I have this feeling, she will either move out of RI(I cannot blame her), or simply retire like Gary Ley. I do not know, I usually watch WPRI 12, or she is actually happy doing Weather on the weekends, she may have another job, during the week, did anybody attempt to contact Kelly Bates? This petition is too old to have any affect on where Kelly Bates works. She may even not know it exist(or WJAR).

Kelly Bates was Great doing news with Frank Colletta. She was fun, relaxed, down to earth, and they had a nice chemistry. Most importantly, she has a great Speaking voice, easy to listen to and understand. Probably for some sexist reason, she was demoted to doing weather. She’s great doing weather also, but then the station hired other people to replace her. I don’t understand why she isn’t more prominent, because she’s the best person they have at that station. And I don’t know her personally.

Keley has personality and charm that made me want to watch the news every day. I am not sure why she’s gone but I feel that it’s discrimination. She needs to come back otherwise I’ll watch Channel 12

Absolutely love Kelly, wonderful meteorologist, very professional, clear and concise conveying the weather to her audience. I believe in giving everyone a chance to try out their skills on the air but right now, Kelly needs to come back as the Monday-Friday meteorologist.

I’m 73 years old and only watch channel 10 new and weather. KellyBates is the only female meteorologist that speaks clearly and doesn’t speak 90 miles an hour. Why isn’t she on full time?

What message are you sending to young women? That it has nothing to do with your education and how well you do your job?! Those days are LONG gone WJAR! Kelly Bates is the BEST and MOST QUALIFIED! I like watching her do the news. She’s friendly, beautiful, and welcoming. This new girl should have to wait to get the prime time. Bring back Kelly Bates!

Kelly Bates all in 100%. Kelly is doing traffic???? Someone there has screwed up. The new "chick" has no charisma, no charm - she is too serious and very, very full.
Why doesn't anybody watch channel 6
