Circle City Broadcasting’s CW affiliate WISH Indianapolis has hired anchor/reporter Jeremy Jenkins.

He brings more than seven years of reporting and anchoring experience to WISH.  For the past five years he’s been an anchor and reporter at Hearst-owned NBC affiliate WGAL Harrisburg-Lancaster, Pa.

While at WGAL, Jenkins reported on underserved communities, including a Hearst company-wide project featuring daily multigenerational interviews that explored race in America. Hearst aired his series in newscasts in all 26 of its TV markets.

Al Carl, WISH VP-news director, said: “Jeremy is a professional, versatile, and innovative storyteller that takes pride in his work. “His self-initiative to personally employee a talent and skills coach to help him sharpen his reporting and anchoring skills speaks volumes about his drive and determination to be the best. We believe Indianapolis will love Jeremy’s enthusiasm.”

Jenkins is a University of Arkansas graduate with a degree in mass media with emphasis on radio and TV broadcasting. He will start at WISH in December.
