Gayle Sierens. Gayle Sierens (born 1954) is a former broadcast journalist and television news anchor on WFLA-TV. She joined the Tampa NBC affiliate in 1977 as a weekend sports anchor and reporter after working with WFSU in Tallahassee while she was attending Florida State University.
Anchor Jen Leigh, who replaced Sierens on the 11 p.m. newscast, will replace Sierens on the 5 and 5:30 newscasts. Anchor Stacie Schaible, who has been with WFLA since 2000, will co-anchor the 4 and 6 p.m. newscasts. WFLA Vice President of News Bill Berra says Sierens leaves behind big shoes to fill.
