FOX 26 gets a 5 pm show?

The Lost Remote kids linked to a Broadcasting and Cable article today on the rapidly expanding Fox empire. I managed to find a Houston nugget buried inside.

The article claims we're getting a new 5 pm newscast in Houston:
Plans are also afoot to add 5 p.m. shows at several stations, including WFLD Chicago, KTXH Houston and WTXF Philadelphia. KMSP Minneapolis-St. Paul recently added one, as did WOFL Orlando, Fla. Although the group is bullish on this daypart, Swanson declines to discuss a possible FNC-produced national evening newscast.
Since this article was on Fox O&O's (that means owned and operated), I wonder if instead of KTXH (Fox now owns the UPN-less channel 20), they meant Fox 26 KRIV?
