Baglini first got Gray to laugh with an off-the-air remark before she said goodbye. She also laughed when Baglini gave brief heartfelt remarks on the air praising her as a journalist, friend, and co-worker.
Callan Gray, who has looked and sounded the most energetic and comfortable in the anchor chair in the last few months, didn’t tell Channel 4 viewers where she was going, just saying she was “off for a new and exciting adventure.”
But after the newscast, in an email message, she confirmed what had been reported here late last week.

In another romantic twist, Gray’s boyfriend, WGRZ-TV reporter Danny Spewak, is expected to leave and join her in Minneapolis after his contract expires in a few months.
