Marty Bass (born April 18, 1953) is a television news personality and weather man for WJZ 13 in Baltimore, Maryland. For most of his career, Marty was paired with anchor Don Scott, who retired in 2014.
In late 1985, Bass was arrested for soliciting a prostitute. On December 4, 1985, Bass solicited a female undercover police officer in Baltimore's Patterson Park. The undercover cop testified Bass requested oral sex. Bass reportedly countered that he asked to "get into her head." Bass was suspended from WJZ 13 until early 1986.
Bass lives in Brooklandville, Maryland, with his wife, Sharon, and their two children.
