WISH-TV scrubs these names off its ‘Meet the Staff’ page after 21 employees depart station

More than 20 employees of Indianapolis’ WISH-TV have departed or been let go by Circle City Broadcasting, its parent company, in recent weeks.

The departures include reporters, photographers, videographers, behind-the-scenes producers and familiar on-air personalities, such as anchor Jeremy Jenkins, who announced his exit from WISH on social media Aug. 29, 2025.

Jenkins did not state his reason for leaving WISH-TV. He departed days after the company told employees to sign new contracts with an expanded non-compete clause by Sept. 2 that would bar them from working in nearly any form of media for a year after leaving the station.
