Annie Yu Career

Yu serves at WUSA Channel 9 as a Weekday Morning News Anchor. Her newscasts appear from 4:25 AM to 7 AM on “Get Up DC” and “Wake Up Washington.” Before joining WUSA, she served at FOX 5 News in Washington D.C. as a news anchor and reporter for over 10 years (December 2004 – October 2018). There she has also worked as a TV News Writer, Traffic Producer, and News Assignment Editor.

Yu started her career in journalism in the capital of the nation, where she spent one and half decades at the Fox O&O station in Washington DC, both behind the scenes and on air. There she assisted in producing reports and covered significant stories like Gubernatorial races, Washington Capitals’ Stanley Cup Parade, presidential inaugurations for Donald Trump and Barack Obama, the 9/11 Pentagon Memorial Dedication, D.C. Mayoral Race in 2010, Nationals’ World Series Parade, just to name a few.

Yu started sharing the narratives of surviving military couples that fought the “Widow’s Tax,” which strips a benefit from countless families, in February 2019. This led to the elimination of the decades-old injustice that took money from the pockets of surviving spouses. The coverage, storming the Hill, on many occasions, alongside the surviving couples and holding lawmakers accountable assisted this bill to reach historic milestones. She made WUSA earn recognition from a number of lawmakers, as well as in the Congressional Record: Proceedings and Debates in the 116th Congress for shining a light on this crucial issue.

Since joining WUSA, she has had more unique assignments such as how to trapeze, and having the chance to go behind the scenes with working military dogs. Also, she has flown with the members of the Andrews Air Show. Yu has served as a co-host of “Redskins Game Time,” a weekly Sunday morning show for numerous football seasons. Also, she has co-hosted “The Red Zone,” a web show that earned a prestigious Edward R. Murrow Award.
