WTIC (FOXCT) has added Ben Goldman, a Connecticut high schooler, to their news team.  But stifle those cries of reporters getting younger every year, Goldman will only report on charity events around Connecticut.

Coleen Marren, news director for the Hartford-New Haven Fox affiliate told the Hartford Courant, “We are thrilled to have Ben join the team.”

Goldman, a brain cancer survivor, hosts “Ben Goldman’s Charity Corner” which is listed on the station’s website as raising awareness for various charities around Connecticut.

The Wethersfield High School junior also covers sports for WCTV 14, Wethersfield’s public access channel.

After a 26-year run with Hartford-New Haven ABC-affiliate WTNH that recently ended in an abrupt dismissal, veteran meteorologist Geoff Fox has landed at rival station WTIC, a Fox-affiliate.

This morning Fox tweeted: “It’s official: Fox on FoxCT! Very excited. Will write more later.”

Earlier this week, Fox stoked speculation about the move when he was spotted meeting with WTIC staff on Tuesday. “I guess it’s tough to walk through a newsroom without making a little news!” he said at the time.

Now Fox will be a regular presence in the WTIC newsroom as part of the station’s weather team.
