Ben Hamlin deserved better because the guy was a class act. He always let the story be the main focus and not himself like so many others do today. He was funny also. Sure do miss him.

I don't believe there has been a team of four that were together as long as those four.. watchin right now with Sabrina still there and Jimbo.. .... where is Jim Babb now? prob a spokesman like half of the former WWBT anchors... and is that Andrea in the red dress?...hmmm Good ad..

@oldjty Naw, that was way before my time, but is there any Youtube videos that show them? I am familiar with Fishburne from his stint with Channel 6 news.

@jzcrandall Yeah. I still think that was a dumb move by WWBT12.

@jzcrandall He works in the same department as my fiancee. I always check to see if Ben Hamlin ever fell on his feet. He was a huge loss.
-
@jzcrandall Oh really? I didn't even know that. I assumed that he wasn't even in Richmond anymore.

@MIKESOWELL Rob RIchardson works at Capital One.

Ben Hamlin does strike a resemblance to the late soul singer Barry White

@daved1974 If you grew up in Richmond, those channels are tattooed on your brain! :)
Ben Hamlin (Black guy with beard) Sports Director with WWBT for 27 years was fired last week along with Reporter Rob Richardson and Anchor Gene Lepley due to the Economic Downturn

It's a shame about the layoffs...I always thought Gene Lepley was the heir apparent to Gene Cox's anchor seat.
