In 1986, she served as a substitute anchor for several weeks on the network's noon-hour news program Midday, when Valerie Pringle was away on maternity leave; she also served a stint as host of Ontario Morning, CBC Radio's local morning program for non-metropolitan markets in Southern Ontario, in the early 1990s. Prestedge subsequently became director of the broadcast journalism program at Mohawk College in Hamilton, Ontario. In 2001, she was named senior vice president of WTSN, the world's first television channel devoted exclusively to women's sports. The channel ceased operations in 2003, and Prestedge rejoined the CBC in a management role; in this capacity, she sometimes served as anchor of the network's abbreviated newscasts during its 2005 labour dispute. After leaving CBC she has been teaching at Mohawk College and as freelance broadcaster. (en)
