Veteran Pittsburgh anchor David Johnson has announced his retirement from NBC affiliate WPXI after 40 years with the station.
“I don’t know where to begin to thank the hundreds of people I’ve worked with here at WPXI-TV over the years,” said Johnson, who joined the station in January 1985. “It sounds cliché, but I really do want to spend more time with my family.”
The station said he was part of the longest-running anchor team in Pittsburgh TV history, along with Peggy Finnegan before she retired in 2020.
