Mirthala Salinas did not show up for her first day of work in Riverside to cover the inland counties east of Los Angeles for Channel 52.
“Telemundo and Mirtha Salinas have mutually agreed to end our employment relationship effective October 1,” station spokesman Victor M. Franco said. He declined to elaborate.”
