retirement means that, for the first time in more than 20 years, viewers in the tri-state area will arise Monday morning without seeing her familiar face on their TV screens.
Stokes has officially ended her New York City broadcasting career, which started at WABC/Ch. 7 in 2000 and ended Friday with her final broadcast on WNYW/Ch. 5 which she joined in 2017 — co-anchoring; starting in June 2021, she anchored the station’s 5, 6 and 10 p.m. newscasts. Stokes, 60, talked about her distinguished career and her retirement plans in a wide-ranging interview with The Post.I don’t know if it’s one thing. I’ve been an open book my whole TV career, particularly when anchoring a morning show [where] you’re putting it out there. Everyone has known me raising my children, getting a divorce, taking care of my parents [and] seeing them through their journey to the other side.
