Chicago station NBC 5 has fired sports anchor Mike Berman.
The Chicago Sun-Times said the moves comes as part of a reorg for the NBC owned station’s sports department.
Berman has worked at the station since 2016.
NBC 5 is gearing up for a big year of sports on a national level. “Sunday Night Basketball” begins Feb. 1, the Olympics begin later that week and “Sunday Night Baseball” will move to NBC this summer. NBC 5 has the chance to take advantage of those events as lead-ins to its newscasts and “Sports Sunday,” which Canellis figures to host.
