Less than three weeks after officially announcing the departure of Alexandre Despatie, Rogers Media has announced his replacement: Derick Fage, a host on the Rogers TV community channel in Ottawa who has filled in as host at BT Montreal this year.
He starts Jan. 4. Wilder Weir, who has been co-hosting with Joanne Vrakas in the interim, returns to his role as Live Eye reporter, in addition to being the host of Sportsnet Central Montreal.
“Derick’s contagious energy makes him a perfect fit for the Breakfast Television format. We believe Montreal viewers will look forward to waking up with Derick and Joanne for their daily dose of entertainment, news, and lifestyle information.”
— Jordan Schwartz, Vice President, In-House Productions, Rogers, in their press release
“who has filled in as host at BT Montreal this year.” I watch BT all the time, never seen this guy in my life. I see Elias and Wilder host all the time. Do you mean BT Toronto?
I guess you missed the episodes he guest-hosted. The last time was in November.
Purely out of curiosity, why would they have not gone with the local in Wilder Weir?
So is Fage better or cheaper than Despatie?
Probably both….
