Probably never given enough credit for being hot. Kathy Brock, widely admired co-anchor of WLS-Channel 7’s top-rated 6 and 10 p.m. weekday newscasts, will retire next month after 28 years at the ABC-owned station. “The time just seems right for change,” Brock, 58, said in an announcement Wednesday. “I want to explore other passions and see what life’s like off the night shift.” When Brock signs off June 27, she noted that she’ll be sitting alongside the same co-anchor she started with on ABC 7’s weekday morning newscast in 1990. “There is poetry for me in closing out this career sharing the 6 and 10 p.m. desk with my original partner, Alan Krashesky, who has also become a dear friend,” she said. Calling Brock “an essential part of our news team for close to three decades,” John Idler, president and general manager of ABC 7, said in a statement: “Her intelligence, integrity and commitment to journalism are unrivaled. We will miss her leadership in the newsroom and wish her all the best.” Alan Krashesky and Kathy Brock No successor has been named for Brock, who has been co-anchor at 6 p.m. since 1993 and at 10 p.m. since 2003. “Kathy has been a significant factor in the longstanding success of ABC 7 Eyewitness News,” Jennifer Graves, vice president and news director, said in a statement. “Her professionalism and ability to help viewers understand every aspect of a story have made her someone Chicago news viewers trust and welcome into their homes.” A native of Pasco, Washington, and graduate of Washington State University, Brock joined ABC 7 after six years at KUTV, the CBS affiliate in Salt Lake City, Utah. She previously worked at stations in Idaho and Washington. “WLS represents the best of local television news,” she said. “I firmly believe there is no equal and recognize what a gift it has been to be part of this team.” ABC 7 just ended the May ratings sweep with a commanding lead at 6 and 10 p.m. in overall households and among viewers in the key demographic between 25 and 54. |

I also thought she was very hot but there was something about her upper lip area. Either smoker lines or a masculinity? |

Yep. Beautiful face, heaving chest. She seemed dumb as a box of rocks for a long while, almost on an adamle level. Rose must have got her during those confused years. I seem to remember a story of her being a reason why they disbanded the Honey Bears. |
