The staff at Teen Kids News has lost a longtime and dear friend this past week.Ernie Anastos was an award-winning newscaster who worked with TKN’s executive producer while they both were at Channel 7 Eyewitness News in New York City.Famous for his always upbeat, positive attitude, viewers not only liked Ernie, they trusted him. His sincerity was real.Over the years, many of us worked with Ernie to create wonderful – and wonderfully creative - TV programs. A truly good person who went out of his way to help others, Ernie was always willing to lend his name and his talent to a worthy cause.When we produced the NY Easter Seal Telethon, Ernie was one of our hosts. Telethons are some of the most difficult TV programs to produce. They run non-stop for hours. And they can be grueling, especially for those who are on-camera for much of that time.Ernie was perfect. He handled the pressures of marathon live television with a smile, humor and good grace.Thanks to his participation, the telethon exceeded its fund-raising goals, enabling Easter Seals to help many more people across the NY metro area. Recently, Ernie invited our anchor, Lylah and our reporter, Ava and our Executive Producer, Alan Weiss, to be guests on his podcast. It was a privilege to work with Ernie Anastos And an honor to have him as a friend.He will be missed.#ernieanastos #positivelyernie ...
