Ukee Washington Biography

Ulysses Samuel “Ukee” Washington III (is an American news co-anchor for the weekday evening newscast on KYW-TV in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. He currently anchors Eyewitness News on CBS 3 at 5,6 and 11 PM with Jessica Kartalija and Eyewitness News on The CW Philly at 10PM on sister station WPSG-TV, also with Kartalija.

Washington originally co-anchored the opening segment of CBS3@4 along with main anchors Natasha Brown and Alexandria Hoff until May 2020, when Brown & Hoff were inexplicably removed from their anchor positions on the broadcast. The move came as a result of layoffs that occurred due to corporate restructuring in the wake of both the December 2019 merger of Viacom and the station's parent company CBS Corporation to become ViacomCBS and the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, however neither Brown nor Hoff were laid off from the station. Kartalija was added to join Washington in co-anchoring the broadcast until October 2021. In that month Brown was reinstated as the sole anchor of the 4pm newscast until she would be joined by former WMAQ-TV sports anchor Siafa Lewis on November 15, 2021. Hoff left CBS3 in August 2021 after 6 years at the station and is currently a general assignment reporter for Fox News. Washington formerly anchored Eyewitness News This Morning on CBS 3 and The CW Philly with co-anchor Erika von Tiehl, as well as the hybrid news and entertainment program Talk Philly with Pat Ciarrocchi which aired weekdays at noon until it was cancelled and reverted to a regular newscast on June 29, 2015, which was anchored by von Tiehl until she left the station in March 2016. On July 1, 2015, just four days after hosting the final episode of Talk Philly, Washington was named the new co-anchor of Eyewitness News weeknight broadcasts a day after lead anchor Chris May was fired by station management along with then-Chief Meteorologist Kathy Orr & Sports Director Beasley Reece.

Washington is the son of Ulysses S. Washington, a noted professor and former football coach at Delaware State University. He is the godfather of Philadelphia Eagles safety Nate Allen. Washington also is the second cousin of actor Denzel Washington.

Washington attended University of Richmond, and is an avid fan of the University of Richmond's Spiders men's basketball team.
