Former Philadelphia TV Reporter Facing Child Porn Charge

A man who worked as a television news reporter in both South Jersey and Philadelphia has been arrested on a child porn charge.

Cleve Bryan, who formerly worked at CBS 3 in Philadelphia and NBC 40 in Atlantic City, has been charged with endangering the welfare of children by possessing child pornography.

In a brief statement, the Washington Township Police Department says his arrest follows an investigation by their detectives and the Gloucester County Prosecutor's Office.

According to his Linkedin profile, Bryan was with the Ocean City Beach Patrol from 1999 to 2003 before getting into television.

From 2005 to 2008, he worked at WMGM-TV (NBC 40) in Atlantic City before moving to WCBD-TV/Charleston, SC, and WVEC-TV in Norfolk, VA.

In 2013, Bryan joined CBS 3 in Philadelphia and eventually became South Jersey Bureau Chief.

He left the station in the summer of 2020 and has been running his own media and marketing firm since.

After his arrest, Bryan, a resident of Sewell, was taken to the Salem County Correctional Facility pending a court appearance.

Anyone who has additional information about Bryan's alleged activities is urged to to contact Sgt. Mike Ferris with the Washington Township Police Department at (856) 589-0330.

The public is reminded that charges are accusations and all persons are considered innocent until proven guilty in a court of law.
