Former KOAM anchor Rhonda Justice will return to the airwaves later this month, resuming the co-anchor spot opposite Dowe Quick.
Show-Me Opinions broke the story on the blogosphere earlier tonight, noting the mention on the KOAM website:
"It's exciting to be back around my KOAM family," she told her new coworkers. "(I) never really left in the heart, it's nice to be around the people I love."
Former anchor Erica Edwards said goodbye on Friday, but she isn't going far.
Erica is teaching TV production at Pittsburg State University and we wish her all the best.

Rhonda is one of the best... glad to see her returning. She has great feelings for victims and is very accurate in her reporting.
And Randy, plug away! :)

Nice photo---Shane was my children's babysitter prior to his mission trip in Taiwan for the past two years...he will be returning to Joplin around Nov 10....the picture brings back how much he is missed. oh yea, and your book is groovy, too!
Thanks. It will be good to have Shane back.
Not sure what "broke the story" means to you, but wouldn't the stations website, facebook and newscasts that shared the news nearly 4 hours before the blog made the post be the ones who "broke" the story?
Show-Me Opinions was the first to have it on a blog and that's where I read about it.
