3News Welcomes Megan McSweeney as New Dayside Assignment Editor

Megan McSweeney
WKYC Studios is proud to welcome Megan McSweeney as our new dayside Assignment Editor, effective today. 

A graduate of Kent State University, she holds a Bachelor of Science in Journalism and a minor in Pre-Law—an academic foundation that pairs editorial strength with a solid grasp of media ethics and legal considerations.

Most recently, Megan served as an Assistant Editor at a news magazine, where she led content review, proofreading, and production scheduling. Her attention to detail and ability to coordinate with cross-functional teams helped ensure a smooth and timely publishing process.

Before that, she worked at Cleveland 19 News in dual roles: Assignment Desk Editor and Digital Content Producer. There, she gained hands-on experience managing breaking news, coordinating field crews, and producing digital content across platforms. Her familiarity with the fast-paced nature of local television news makes her well-equipped to thrive in the assignment editor role.

Originally from Avon, Ohio, Megan is excited to return to Cleveland’s news scene. She began her career at West Life News, covering city council meetings and reporting on neighborhood issues. Her work helped foster relationships with local officials and highlighted her commitment to meaningful, community-driven journalism.

Megan’s strong editorial instincts, collaborative spirit, and passion for local news make her a welcome addition to the WKYC family.
