Mike Foley
News; Sports; Feature Reporter

Mike Foley joined WCBE in February 2000, coming from WUFT in Gainesville, Florida. He earned two degrees from the University of Florida, one in Broadcasting and the other in Print Journalism. Growing up and spending the better part of his life in the Sunshine State, Mike continues to adjust to Ohio's winters. He has been unsuccessful in attempts to structure a contract that would allow him to stay home on days when the temperature falls below 60. He sometimes becomes grumpy in cold weather, while fellow news colleague Alison remains rather cheerful. But Foley finds strength in the lyrics of Eddie Vedder - "no matter how cold the winter, there's a springtime ahead." 

Mike loves to golf and spend time with his wife, son, daughter and dog. Of course he follows the Gators, but also roots for the Denver Broncos - which works out well with his orange and blue wardrobe. He often brings up "The Drive" to newsman Jim, who typically responds in disgust. But other than the weather and sports, the news staff gets along just fine.
