Telemundo Chicago’s VP of News Diana Maldonado is leaving the station after almost 14 years.

Company sources confirm her last day is this Friday.

There’s no word yet on whether she’ll transition to another role within Telemundo or leave the company.

Maldonado has led the newsroom since 2010, starting out as news director. She was promoted to VP of News two years later.

Earlier this year, on-air talent and producers voted to unionize, making the Spanish-language station a SAG-AFTRA and NABET shop.

Prior to becoming news director at WSNS, Maldonado was an executive producer for Telemundo network based in Miami.

She began her career at Univision’s WGBO in her home town of Chicago.
