Remembering Tammy Dombeck and Rebecca Miller

 While watching some YouTube videos I ran across one of Tammy Dombeck's "Greets, Eats, and All That" videos.  If you are an older person you will remember Tammy Dombeck as the traffic lady on some TV station and Rebecca Miller as a nice weather lady.  Tammy Dombeck's YouTube channel is here:  https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCmMvy0cN0OnKH8zWQtXkH-w. I believe she has moved on to other activities.  I think Tammy Dombeck is now a real estate professional:  Sotheby's International Realty.

This particular video is very nice: "What's For Dinner?" with Tammy Dombeck with Casa Manana. Now that we are opening up, I am looking at the Casa Manana schedule!

Both Tammy Dombeck and Rebecca Miller were capable and popular, but got let go from their jobs as they got older.  David Finfrock was able to work until he was 65 years old, but not Rebecca Miller, definitely evidence of gender age bias. I don't think Rebecca Miller sued, but Tammy Dombeck did.  Good for her!  She got a settlement:  https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/us/tammy-dombeck-cbs-11-settle-age-discrimination-lawsuit-over-rookie-traffic-reporter-s-hiring/ar-BB16JV5j
