Very sad indeed. He also worked for RTÉ prior to joining the BBC. May he rest in peace.

That’s good news. He’s an excellent journalist. Judging by his social media accounts he’s been travelling the world since he left GB News.

USA: Don Alhart, the current Guinness record holder for longest-tenured newscaster in the world (a record he held twice, in 2016 and 2023), has announced he is retiring from anchor duties at Sinclair’s Rochester station WHAM 13, after a long, 58-year career in the station. His final newscast will be June 6.

His career has been made mostly in Rochester, starting out at WROC before moving to WOKR (now WHAM), and has worked most of the station’s newscasts, being the foremost constant in the station.
