Rose joined WISN 12 in August 2018 as an investigative reporter. Since his arrival at WISN 12, Rose has investigated radon in schools, and uncovered how Tylenol and Advil are twice as effective as opioids prescribed by Wisconsin doctors. Prior to his position at WISN 12, Rose worked in various roles at stations across the country. In addition to his new anchor role, Rose will continue to serve as an investigative reporter for WISN 12 News.
