Amyre Makupson (/əˈmɪər ˈmeɪkəpsən/ ə-MEER MAY-kəp-sən), (née Porter; born September 30, 1947) is an American former news anchor and director of public affairs at WKBD in Detroit.
Makupson held positions at WSM-TV in Nashville and WRC-TV in Washington, D.C., before moving back to Detroit in 1975 to work as director of public relations for Head Start, the Michigan Health Maintenance Organization.
That same year, Makupson was hired by WGPR-TV, the nation's first African-American owned television station, to anchor Big City News and the Detroit focused talk show Porterhouse.
At WKBD, she hosted Morning Break, the station's daily talk show, and produced and anchored a five-minute newsbreak called TV50 News Scene.
In 1985, Makupson was appointed co-anchor of WKBD's newly-launched Ten O'Clock News; beginning in 2001, she also began to anchor 62 CBS Eyewitness News at 11 on WKBD's sister station, WWJ-TV (ironically, the former WGPR).
