Is Max Goldwasser Gone From FOX-17?

Now the big question is...did Max Goldwasser leave Fox-17?

Without his announcement, you probably wonder where I am getting this information.

As you may know weekend morning anchor and reporter, Lauren Kummer, announced that her last day on Fox-17 would be on August 15th.

On September 3rd, Kummer posted a cross-country road trip update that caught my attention.

In her Facebook post, Kummer thanks Max Goldwasser "for moving across the country, so I could use it as an excuse to road trip."

Does that mean that Max Goldwasser has officially left Fox-17?

At this time, it is unclear if Max has left the West Michigan area and FOX-7. However, if he has happy trails to him! We hope Max will make an announcement soon so that we can celebrate him.

We will keep you updated if we learn more.
