this light is lit up, the camera crew cannot be speaking. The only people that are speaking is the anchors.

The stories happen here at this very table. This is where the Wilkes Now amchors report the stories during the 30 minute live show. The anchors this year were Rachel Leandri, Annelise Przywara,

Eric Casey, and Jennifer Magnotta. The anchor stories are usually 30 seconds to a minute long. Their stories, along with the reporters stories are events that are happening at Wilkes University or in the

Wilkes Barre community. Every year, the director and producer have auditions for the anchor positions.
