A recognition like this is never earned alone. Thank you to Nora for your leadership, trust and support, and to @weatherchannel, my incredible teams and colleagues who challenge me and bring us to the next level every day. ✨💕✨

Memory Monday ✨ Looking back at a special night celebrating one of our 2026 Silver Circle recipients, Troy Johnson, and his remarkable career in broadcasting. Congratulations again, Troy!

Repost @troy_j ⬇️

I’m still taking in last night. I was inducted into the @southeastemmy Silver Circle…an honor that reflects my decades of work across radio, TV, even print! 5 cities, broadcast in 5 countries, and a lifetime in this industry.

The highs, the lows, the people, the growth… none of it happens alone. Having my mom, sister and cousin in the room made the night complete. @16wapt GM Peter Keith reminded me this was a big deal, and we celebrated it that way!

Last night when I spoke I asked if anyone felt like they had imposter syndrome. I believe in my abilities, I prepare, focus, work hard, and stay professional…but sometimes I question whether I deserve recognition. Last night I enjoyed the moment, and it’s one I wont forget. ❤️

Congratulations to 2026 Silver Circle inductee Joanne Feldman! ✨

A special reflection on a well-deserved honor. 🏆

Repost from @joannefox5 ⬇️

Oh what a night!

I’m still wrapping my brain around this tremendous honor - to be inducted into the prestigious Southeast Chapter of the National Academy of Television Arts and Sciences “Silver Circle”.

Joining the company of so many respected and accomplished industry professionals blows me away. And the number of people who helped me get here over the last couple of decades is far too great to list here. But I am so grateful.

To family, colleagues past and present, managers who believed in me, and viewers who have trusted me - THANK YOU. I’ll never stop trying to live up to what this recognition means.
