KHOU 11's Butch Alsandor arrives in new world

David Barron of the Houston Chronicle found out how different KHOU Channel 11's sports department will be for the promoted Butch Alsandor:

Alsandor’s ascension as of Wednesday to the weekday sports-anchor slot vacated by Gifford Nielsen’s resignation Monday isn’t a simple matter of moving from one spot on the organizational chart to another. With the layoff of the station’s two sports producers, his workday will be considerably different than was Nielsen’s in the same role.
“The photographers will do the editing, but as far as deciding what we will do, it will be hands on for me,” he said. “It will be different. We’re all kind of going to school, trying to figure out how do some things that are new to us.” READ THE REST
The KHOU sports department is starting to resemble a small market station.
