: For a couple of years a morning traffic
: reporter on WIND was going by the name
: of Jeanette Hudson. Even had her own
: website. She left WIND (never replaced by the way)
: and resurfaced at WGN, but now using the name Rene Carter.

: So is her real name Jeanette Hudson, Rene Carter
: of something complete different? My main
: surprise is that I didn't think that traffic
: reporters were using stage names. Are they
: afraid that they will be recognized in real life?


They used to use pseudonyms quite often. Many PDs didn't want "their" traffic person showing up as the competition's traffic person. Sometimes the traffic names would be pretty funny too.
