The Weather Channel expressed their gratitude towards their fellow employee, Sam Champion. A spokesman spoke a few words about this legendary anchor and his dedication towards his work. He expressed,
"While Sam will always be part of The Weather Channel family, we have mutually agreed to not enter into a new contract. As our managing editor, host of our flagship AMHQ and his pioneering work on '23.5 Degrees,' Sam's leadership has helped transform The Weather Channel into the dynamic high-quality environment it is today,"
