METAIRIE (WGNO) — When WGNO’s first newscast as an ABC affiliate aired in 1996, Andre Trevigne was on the anchor desk.  Trevigne not only helped steer the station’s news coverage in its early days as a network affiliate, she also worked for WGNO when it was an independent station.

Trevigne also worked for other TV stations in New Orleans and on radio for 870 AM.

She died Monday morning, according to the radio station’s website, while in hospice care.

Trevigne had her own personal battles in life, but she was just as quick on the air to skewer any public official who deserved it or to advocate for and defend anyone in need.

You never wondered how Andre Trevigne felt about any topic.  She will be missed!
