Rebecca Gannon, who had just joined KMBC-TV9 as a reporter in February, will be leaving the broadcasting business to take a job outside of television.

Sources have told Bottom Line she will be joining Cerner Corporation.

Her final day on-air will be Friday.

A graduate of the University of Missouri, Gannon worked at the college-owned station for a year before heading to WBOC in?Maryland for two years. She then moved to KWCH in Wichita as a reporter/anchor for five years before briefly joining WDAF-Fox4 as a per diem reporter for seven months prior to joining KMBC.

?This business is a fickle one,? Gannon wrote on he blog.? ?I have seen very good people fail in this profession, and I have seen people with minimal talent and work ethic rise to the top.

?I am proud to say I never compromised my integrity for my career, but I have given up on a lot of things: sleep, privacy, and too often, my family.?
