Post-Survivor
Edit
In 2004, Helen became a columnist in Providence Journal, a Rhode Island newspaper, where she covered the events of Survivor: All-Stars, and relating them to her experience as a contestant in Survivor: Thailand, even discussing behind-the-scenes details that were not supposed to be divulged in public. This caused CBS to inform Glover that she made a breach in the Survivor Rulebook, that production-related details should not be discussed in public three years after a contestant has appeared on the show. Even though Helen submitted her works to CBS for approval, the Providence Journal discontinued her column.[1]
- She hosts the Helen Glover Show on TalkRadio920WHJJ which was named by the Associated Press as the best talk show among AP member stations for a record 4 times (most recently in 2012)
