Morning host Gloria Neal has left CBS46 today after just 17 months.

Her name has been stripped off the staff listings and her bio page is gone. (Archive.org saved it if you want to read it here.)

Given the timing, she is likely still under contract. She did not respond to a text and call for comment about why she's departing.

"We are sad that Gloria has chosen to leave CBS46 and we wish her the best of luck in her future endeavors," is what General Manager Mark Pimental provided.

Here's her last Tweet as a CBS46 employee this morning, a rather chipper one at that. That's a reference to Rebekka Schramm, a reporter, not to anything nefarious.

Neal was formerly at the CBS affiliate in Denver and hosted a radio program on a station in that city. She was part of a massive overhaul of the CBS anchor staff last year, which cleared out every anchor except Tracye Hutchins.
