- Our Mara MacDonald began working here in 2004. After her first week on the job, she was told, "It's like you've always been here." Kim Adams has great stories about being a young intern at channel 50 alongside another up-and-comer, a young fellow aspiring broadcaster who frankly scared the heck out of her because MacDonald is a force to be reckoned with.
Mara, Paula, Bernie,Rod may you all have a blessed retirement thank you for keeping us informed for your great reporting 🎉🎉❤
Noooooo!!! Mara too!! 😢 may your journey be blessed!! You’ll be missed!
Thank you Mara. you will be MISSED. Love your BEAUTIFUL SMILES, LAUGHS, your LOVE AS A REPORTER always sincere in reporting. Your bubbly personality. Good luck on your new chapter of your life. I WISH you the BEST.
I live in Cleveland. Mara has been my favorite reporter on tv since I was in college at the university of Toledo about 20 years ago and first started watching her reports. She is such a good storyteller and I will miss her at 11:00 so much. 😢
Happy Blessed Retirement Mara, you will be missed. 💙
Congratulations Mara MacDonald! Retire early and enjoy life to its fullest.
She sent a message in X saying she is not retiring but starting Chapter 2. Take that as a hint.
Happy Retirement Ms.Mara 🎉🎉🎉🎉
I have a winter hat collection because of Mara. One of Michigan's treasures.
WOW, Paula Tutman, Bernie Smilovitz and Mara Mac Donald retiring all the same time, I wish all of you happy peaceful retirement. Enjoy your new norm.❤❤❤
We will miss our beautiful Mara!
She eats more cheeseburgers than Trump.
Congrats Mara. You will be missed!
Mara, you will be missed... Congratulations 🎉
Damn why is everyone leaving so quickly so suddenly?
Buy outs
Trouble at the mothership...NBC...
Cost cutting. I saw the same thing at a job I worked at years ago.
@@brianmanuel1202 WDIV has nothing to do with NBC besides being licensed to carry their programming. WDIV is owned by Graham Media. The issue is that companies are parting ways from TV and radio advertising. This is because the most profitable demographic is not watching TV anymore.
Mara AND Paula???
I'm sad. 🥺
I wish them both of luck in their new endeavors. You'll both be missed!
PS My favorite book is "To Kill a Mocking Bird," too. ❤
It's a shame that WDIV executives are forcing out all of the older staff😢 hopefully they can get with a different station and still make good money 💰💰💰💰
They can spin it all they want, but when you cut to the chase, it is a cost-cutting move. They are bringing in younger talent on the cheap.
XXL Mara MacDonald have a nice Retirement 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
I love you Mara. I will miss you so much. Best wishes to you.
She's a trooper. Good job on the reports.
Miss Mara, a class act! God Bless!😊
CONGRATULATIONS 🎊 👏 💐 🥳 MARA.
I love Mara, she will be missed along with Paula. I don't know why people are intimidating by folks with strong personality.
Great job mara.❤❤💯💯💥💥👍🏻👍🏻
Mara McDonald will be greatly missed on the broadcast. True professional ❤❤❤
❤ Mara McDonald ❤
Best of wishes Mara to you
Can’t wait for Mara’s chapter 2. Hint hint.
What is happening behind the scenes at the station?
WDIV has been on a downward spiral ever since Kim Adams slithered her way back onto the scene, with help from her "bestie" Devin Scillian as Andrew Humphrey was pushed OUT so SHE can claim the lead meteorologist position.
In addition to Mara, Bernie Smilovitz, Paula Tutman & Rod Meloni all leaving, we've also seen the departures of Jason Carr (fired), Paul Gross, Sandra Ali (who now anchors CBS News Detroit), Evrod Cassimy, Grant Hermes (who is now in Boston) and Brandon Roux, who was first demoted for that Ashlee Baracy chick and then literally pushed out into the cold and even cut off his microphone on his final appearance (he was fired cause he's friends with Jason Carr and did a podcast with him)
I hope you have a happy retirement Mara.
I was kinda hoping could dare awhile...
...then travel the world together.
Awww...
One of the best!!
Is everyone leaving channel 4. Not even sticking around for November
I always thought she was a very pretty reporter. Good luck in your retirement.
Karen Drew should take her job !

💯💯❤️❤️❤️🌹🌹🌹🌹✌️
Anyone notice how the white reporters are leaving or retiring. WDIV becoming more like BET each day.
Wasn't paying attention Charlie Kirk.

I like those old school 4 logos on the bottom in that one shot.
