Leslie Sykes Signs Off as ABC ‘Eyewitness News’ Morning Anchor After 3 Decades in Los Angeles Media

ABC Eyewitness News anchor Leslie Sykes signed off from the desk on Tuesday, surrounded by longtime co-workers who celebrated the Compton, California, native’s long run as Kabc morning anchor.

“It is so hard to believe that this is my last day on this set,” Sykes said. “It’s been the privilege of my life to wake up with you and to share your stories and to be welcomed into your homes every morning.”

Sykes began her broadcast career in Hattiesburg, Mississippi, joining the Channel 7 news crew in Los Angeles as a reporter in 1994. She was later promoted to morning anchor, and announced her plans to retire last month.
