Veteran WRTV-TV Channel 6 media personality Stacia Matthews said she is leaving the Indianapolis station after a 23-year run.

Matthews said in an e-mail that her last day at WRTV will be Nov. 30. She said she’ll start Dec. 3 as a public relations manager for the Indiana Spine Group.

Her new work schedule will allow her to pursue a master’s degree in public health, a longtime dream, Matthews said.

Matthews joined WRTV in 1989 as a general assignment reporter after working at TV stations in Lynchburg, Va., and Nashville, Tenn., according to WRTV's website.

Matthews’ announcement that she’s leaving the station follows last week's departure of news director Kevin Finch.

    ISG need a good PR Director. They triple book (as they informed me in 2006), and you wait for 2-3 hrs to at an appt you made 2-3 months prior. One we were forgotten about in an examination room. Dr. S_s_o is an arrogant little man who has a God given talent, but thinks he is God.And don't tell him his surgery didn't work, even if the MRI confirms it. He'll go after your home, your money, would probably take your first born if the courts wold let him. After my surgery @ ISG I was off worse physically, and 30K lighter in the bank acct (INS decided not to cover it), I really enjoyed you television work and reporting expertise. Good luck, Staci.

    Stacia Matthews leaves after 23 years. Grace Trahan leaves after 18 years. Dan Spehler and Ray Cortopassi now on Fox59...WRTV can't keep anyone, no stability. What's going on there?

    Very best wishes to Stacia as she embarks on a new career. She is an outstanding reporter and will be excellent in her new role for the Indiana Spine Group. Very sorry to see her leave RTV6, but wish her nothing but the best!
