Iowa Anchor Chokes Up on Air as He Quits in Protest Over 'Sanitized News': 'The Facts Matter' | Video - TheWrap
“When it comes to this job, all I’ve ever wanted to do is report on the issues that really matter,” the Emmy Award-winning news anchor says Iowa KWQC morning anchor Dustin Nolan announced his departure from the station Friday in an emotional message that made clear he does not intend to remain in the news industry. Nolan told viewers he believes “that we as a local news station have to be more than trends or sanitized news” and added, “That’s why the facts matter and that’s why we do what we do here.” Nolan was near tears from the beginning of his message.
