  1. My question is why WKYC now has to have 4 co-anchors/reporters, 5 including Matt or Jimmy and must run news for 3-1/2 hours, minus 1/2 hr for world news. I feel like I’m watching a talk show, over and over again. It’s ridiculous!

    You don’t need 4 anchors to report basically one or maybe two newsworthy stories. The staff changes daily! Can’t wait for Sarah to come back. She and Russ are the best. It’s annoying!

  2. On April 6, it was mentioned that giant eagle will no longer have plastic bags. Not that long ago. There is a church St. Mathaisis in Broadview Hts that was collecting these bags. Volunteers were crocheting mats for the homeless. Not sure if they are doing this. Worth the check. All of you are awesome!

  3. I have watched Betsy for years, she adds a great deal to Channel 3. Great weather stories, and a fashionista, too!!!

  4. I am very sad to say that I cannot watch the weather when your latest hire (Jason) presents the weather. He needs to tone “IT” down. I love watching Betsy because every weather forecast is different and I love seeing her clothes, hairstyle, etc. She is also so hot!!! I like Matt very much and he is a very interesting person with a very interesting family.

    Betsy, your weather forecasts are right on target. Greetings this season to you all.

  5. We still miss you in Jacksonville. Glad you are happy up there in the Land of the frozen tundra! The day you left us was a very sad day for everyone here in the River City.come back to see us sometime, just for ole times sake!

  6. Betsy Kling, the consummate professional. A real asset to our community. You have all the qualities of a television personality and you project that image with sophistication and outright class. You bring professionalism and fun to your weather segments yet keep your forecasts free from needless fluff. You’re the #1 name for Cleveland weather.

    1. Where is Betsy??? I miss her and have heard nothing about her whereabouts. If she’s taking a well-deserved vacation, great. But please tell me she has not left the station. She is a big BRIGHT SPOT, regardless of the weather.

  7. Besty, a few days ago when you were doing the weather, you were wearing a type of jacket, that looked like black leather on the front & rest of it was like a sweater type design. I can’ t remember if the sleeves were leather like or sweater type. I enjoy seeing you on TV doing the weather! Vivian

  8. I wish other newscasters/weather would follow your lead on dress. Very pure and dignified.
    Thank you

  9. Betsy, I really enjoy you on channel 3. I would love to meet you sometime. I wish everyone was as happy as you are.

  10. Betsy you are not only great with your forecasts but you are a pure example of what women look up to. Your beautiful, your kind, the way you speak on the show always professional and accurate. Good luck to you and your professional and mostly personal families.

  11. During the thunderstorm last week I was in my kitchen when what appeared to be a streak and then a large ball of fire came through my kitchen window I was wondering if you could give me any information on this occurrence. It really scared me and only lasted a few seconds. Thank you for any information you can give me.

    1. Several years ago a flash of lightning came across the back yard and hit a lounge chair. Five bowling ball size balls of fire came up from the ground while the lightning ricocheted back and hit a pine tree. The bark was partially stripped away and the tree later died. Don’t know about you, but every hair on my body stood straight up!

  12. Would love to know how you get back into shape after having babys. What do you eat, who do you work out an a mom and with your hours. You must be strong with your Dailey do list. Holly is super too. Takes drive.

  13. Betsy Kling is such an beautiful woman, she is so knowledgeable, personable and absolutley the greatest legs on TV.

  14. Just saw your daughter. Josie, on the newscast. She is a beautiful little girl, with a smile just like her mother’s.

  15. I would guess you have been asked this before, but where do you get your clothes? I love everything you wear.

  16. Betsy…I think you’re such a good example for womenThank you for all your effort (although you make it look effortless)and enthusiasm

  17. Hi this is Betsy Kling.
