I noticed she was out this week, but had no idea she was landing a new gig. |
| Her contract was up and she's moving to Channel 7. |
I wonder if it is a in a different role: Jacqui Jeras ?@JacquiJeras 10m10 minutes ago Meet @SullivanTraffic ! The newest member of @ABC7GMW. She has great traffic reports and taste in clothes! Follow her |

| It will be interesting to see how long Julie Wright's non compete runs for. A bunch of pics popped up on her FB and Twitter yesterday of a going away party. |
she's been on twitter all week being rather coy (for now) about her next move but promises she's staying local. |
| Any updates on Julie? Not that I miss her style of fashion, I'm just curious. |
My hunch is she is moving to Channel 7 but can't announce it till her non-compete with Channel 5 is up. |

VIA DCRTV:
Confirmed: Julie Wright To 7 - 4/2 - DCRTV tipped you weeks ago and now we get confirmation that DC area traffic diva Julie Wright will be joining Channel 7/WJLA. She posted the news today on her Facebook page that she'll be doing traffic during "Good Morning Washington." We told you back in March that Wright had left her gig with Total Traffic Network, where she was seen doing morning traffic on Channel 5/WTTG and heard on a variety of area radio stations, including WPGC and WNEW..... |
| Hope she changes her wardrobe. |
a year of so ago she shed some weight which made her wardrobe look a little bit better. then one day we tuned in and my husband was like wtf happened. she used to tweet about running and exercising but i guess she stopped. |
| Her Facebook video announcing the news showed her in her the same ole same ole. She shouldn't wear short sleeves with such chunky arms. |
LOVE Doug Kammerer! |

Take this for what it is worth, but a radio/TV gossip site called DCRTV has a mailbag section, and this was posted in it:
Julie Wright burned three bridges when she signed that fat contract with Channel 8. Total Traffic, WNEW and Fox 5. She left with no notice and they all had to scramble to cover the shifts she walked out on. For her sake, I hope it was a long term deal, because if 8 doesn't renew, she's done in DC and maybe done period. You don't piss off companies like Clear Channel, CBS and Fox and think they'll just hire you back. Plus the word is out that she's a selfish employee and a nightmare to work with. (5/20/15) |
