“I wanted to let everyone know that Lauren Minor is no longer with WXIX Fox 19, we wish her well,” said Jennifer Rieffer, WXIX vice president and general manager, in a one-sentence note to staff.

Minor joined WXIX as a morning reporter in April 2019. She was promoted to morning co-anchor in August 2022, then lost that job in May when the station named Amber Jayanth and Now in the Nati host Julie O’Neill as main morning anchors.
