WPLG Local 10

Ross Palombo returned to Local 10 News in March 2017 as chief of the Washington, D.C., bureau.

It was a homecoming of sorts, because Ross worked at Local 10 from 2010 to 2015 and spent the early part of his career in Miami as a producer for another local station.

Prior to returning to Local 10, Ross worked as a weekend co-anchor at KTVU in San Francisco. He has also worked in San Antonio, Phoenix, Memphis and Fort Wayne, Ind.

Ross graduated from the University of Missouri with a bachelor's degree in journalism.
