BILL PEARSON
Reporter

Bill Pearson joined the Channel 3 News team in February of 2006. Before WEAR, he worked for more than three years as a General Assignment Reporter for WCTV in Tallahassee.

Bill's interest in television news began early, when at age five he would make time to watch the local weather report. As he grew older, his interest in television shifted more towards news.

Bill graduated with a Journalism degree from the University of Central Florida in 2002. His broadcasting career began in college, while working for WUCF-FM. He then moved on from radio and into television where he worked for two years as an associate producer/writer for WFTV, the ABC station in Orlando.

During his reporting career, Bill has enjoyed the opportunity of interviewing a wide variety of people including the governors of both Florida and Georgia, members of the armed services, local leaders and of course everyday citizens.

Bill is an avid sports fan, and he enjoys rooting for the University of Central Florida football team and his beloved Denver Broncos in the
NFL. He also enjoys working out, watching movies, meeting new people and going to the beaches along the Gulf Coast.
