Maureen Green (born June 6, 1957) was a prominent news anchor on WTVH-TV Syracuse. Maureen originally started on WSYR-TV in 1982. In 1983 she joined the WTVH team at the anchor desk. Through Green's 22 years at WTVH she worked with the likes of Mike Tirico, David Muir, and Ron Curtis.[1] Maureen was known for her interviews, including one with Oprah Winfrey.
Maureen was fired in December 2007 from WTVH-TV for non-disclosed reasons to the public. It has since been suggested that it had to do with her salary. The station also did not renew a contract with long-time anchor Matt Mulcahy in 2004[2] and had made a long series of cutbacks ultimately ending in the closure of WTVH's news operations in 2009.[3]
Maureen Green is married with four children including up and coming artist Christian Green [4] and has subsequently appeared on Bridge Street, a WSYR-TV local news programme.
