Angelique Proctor...doing news in Atlanta

Aungelique Proctor and Randi
We really enjoyed the time that we were graced with Aungelique Proctor as our news director. Plenty of good times and we knew it was just a matter of time before the Big Boys would come calling and take her to a bigger place. 
     I visit Atlanta often and always look to FOX5 NEWS for a chance to see her at work...and she is very much the consummate professional that she was here on both WKRC and WCIN.

Aungelique is a reporter for FOX5 NEWS. Before joining FOX5 in 1994, this Atlanta native was an investigative reporter for WTLV in Jacksonville, Florida. She also reported and anchored at WKRC in Cincinnati, WMAZ in Macon, Georgia and WALB in Albany, Georgia.

But for Aungelique, her broadcasting career first started on a program called ‘The Lawmakers" on Georgia Public Television. Before working ...in front of the camera, Aungelique worked behind the mic at several radio stations in Cincinnati and even served as News Director at WCIN.

An award wining reporter, Aungelique has followed the big story around the world. She has covered stories from the Million Man March to the touching stories of Hurricane Katrina survivors to the devastating earthquakes outside Istanbul, Turkey.

Aungelique has won several awards including three Emmys, the Associated Press Best Newscast and a National Association of Black Journalists award for her report, "The Rosewood Massacre."

Aungelique is a graduate of the Henry W. Grady College of Journalism and Mass Communication at the University of Georgia. She is a past officer of the Atlanta Association of Black Journalists as well as a member of The Links Inc., Alpha Kappa Alpha Sorority Inc. and the Chums Inc.

When she’s not on the air, Aungelique loves to volunteer with The Children's Restoration Network and the Sadie G. Mays Nursing Home. She’s also a lifelong member of Central United Methodist Church. She also loves to travel and speak to schools throughout the community.

Aungelique lives in Atlanta with her husband and their three daughters.


If you ever travel to Atlanta..make sure you check her out and she is also on Facebook and welcomes all likes and comments. It's always good to see a WCIN alumni doing well. Continued success to you Aungelique!!!
