Katie McCall to leave FOX 26 KRIV
UPDATE APRIL 24, 2014
Katie McCall joins FOX 26 after KTRK 13
Katie McCall |
The KTRK gig was her second time on Houston TV.
McCall returned to Houston in 2009 from WBBM Chicago to anchor KTRK's weekend morning newscasts. In May 2013, she transitioned into a full-time weekday reporter role, desiring more normal working hours she tells me.
Before that, McCall reported six years for KIAH 39 in the early days of that station's revived newscast. At channel 39, the award winning journalist was named "best local TV news reporter" by the Houston Press in 2004. Remember the KHWB and KHCW call letters channel 39 used to have back then?
McCall originally came to Houston from KGUN 9 Tucson where she worked as a reporter.
She is a cum laude graduate of Vanderbilt University.
McCall will let us know her next stop as soon as all the details are worked out. In the meantime, those who have emailed me about her absence from channel 13, can watch McCall's greatest hits here.
