TALLAHASSEE, Fla. (WCTV) – After 25 years serving viewers in north Florida and south Georgia, veteran WCTV journalist and morning anchor Lanetra Bennett will be signing off at the end of August.
Lanetra has been a full-time co-anchor of WCTV’s The Good Morning show since 2020. As her family grows, so does Lanetra’s desire to spend more time with them.
“Once my niece was born back in October, it made me start reflecting on birth, new life, and new beginnings. There was a tugging at my heart for me to make a fresh start. I started imagining the possibility of being closer to my niece, my sister and her husband, and my mom, who has moved there to Atlanta with them. I am open to possibilities and look forward to what God has in store for my new phase in life,” Lanetra said.
In August, Lanetra will celebrate 25 years at WCTV before her final newscast. She is looking forward to inviting the community to participate in a series of goodbye events to be announced by WCTV later this month…
