Drama Going Down in Nashville (Patreon)

When she was on the air in Richmond, news managers in the market say that Nikki-Dee Ray moved the needle. 

At WTVR, the show that she was part of saw a big ratings boost. 

But we think the "D" in Nikki-Dee might stand for drama? There seems to be a lot of it where she goes. 

She was let go from the Nexstar station in Texas after naked photos of her surfaced and what turned out to be a revenge porn case. 

But, in Richmond, she was posted up against the Nexstar station and the management at Nexstar saw that she could deliver the ratings. 

So, when Nikki-Dee Ray said that she was interested in moving to Nashville, Nexstar's WKRN was willing to offer her a job. Scripps' owned WTVF was also interested in Nikki-Dee and they made a play for her as well. 

Cue up some more drama. 

WKRN's Chief meteorologist Danielle Breezy was caught on a hot mic gossiping about Nikki-Dee Ray and what WTVF's plans might be for her?

 Even people inside WTVF are wondering what's going on? Sources say WTVF was full when it came to weather people and Nikki-Dee was hired when there was apparently no job position open. 

Some inside the station are scratching their heads. "(Management) is telling current employees it is on a hiring freeze and multiple Photographer and Reporter openings will not be filled this year. Why did the station create a new position when pre-existing positions are wide open?" said one staffer to FTVLive. 

Word is that Ray will be on the station's morning show and splitting air time with the station's Chief Meteorologist Lelan Statom. We'll see how that works out?

But, the drama does not end there. Insiders tell FTVLive that the station is saying that Nashville is Nikki-Dee Ray's hometown, when in fact she is from Alabama. 

Nikki-Dee Ray begins her new gig in Nashville this month and we have a feeling, this isn't the last time we are going to be hearing about her. 

Drama seems to follow Nikki-Dee wherever she goes. 

Stay tuned...
