Veteran broadcaster Rick Zamperin is a part of CHCH News as a co-anchor on Morning Live.“Morning Live has always felt like family to me, even from the other side of the screen,” he said.After a 30- plus year career in local radio and sports broadcasting, Zamperin is a familiar face and voice to community members across the Hamilton, Halton and Niagara regions.“I’ve spent my career telling the stories of this region, and now I’m thrilled to wake up with viewers every morning and continue doing what I love – just with a lot more cameras around.”Co-anchor Annette Hamm says she’s excited to welcome Zamperin to the Morning Live desk.“Rick and I once shared a police scanner, a notepad, and way too many donuts,” Hamm said.“To say I’m thrilled to have him beside me again, this time with better lighting, is an understatement.”The self-described ‘Swiss Army Knife’ joins the CHCH team during a time of renewed energy and focus on delivering local news to the communities that need it most.“When CHML shut off the lights last summer it was a big hit to the community and myself as well, having spent 24 years there,” Rick said, speaking on Morning Live Friday morning.“When I got the chance to go for this job I thought, ‘absolutely.’” Rick grew up in Toronto and has worked as a journalist throughout Southern Ontario. He has called Hamilton home since 2000.“Rick’s reputation speaks for itself,” added CHCH news director Greg O’Brien. “He’s trusted, relatable, and deeply rooted in this community.”“We’re excited to have him bring his knowledge and perspective to our anchor desk as we continue to evolve the show while staying true to what makes Morning Live special.”Rick is scheduled to make his Morning Live debut on Monday, May 12 at 6 a.m.#rickzamperin #chchmorninglive #hamiltontigercats #chrispomay #livewithcdp #barrycullenchevroletdealership https://www.chch.com/chch-news/rick-z...https://x.com/rickzamperinhttps://www.barrycullen.comhttps://www.paypal.com/paypalme/chris...
