Trason Bragg is joining KHOU 11 Houston as a weekend morning anchor after working for the CBS Local News Innovation Lab out of the now-named CBS News Texas KTVT in Dallas - Fort Worth, where he was an anchor/reporter for CBS-owned and operated stations nationwide.
Bragg takes over for Lauren Talarico who left in June 2023.
I am back from my 2024 Washington, DC, work and will return to regular blogging. Let the Houston and Texas media news flow again! Now, when I'm off, I can replace the lack of blog posts with my documentary, "Runaway Radio."
My DFW readers may recall seeing Bragg on "CBS News DFW Now on TXA21." And for those in Houston, you'll likely recognize Collin Myers, a meteorologist Bragg worked with starting in 2022 when the news division was launched.
For three years, Bragg was a reporter and sports anchor/reporter for CBS 46 WGCL (now called Atlanta News First).
He got his television news start with KRGV 5 Rio Grande Valley as a reporter in 2017.
Bragg might look familiar to television viewers outside of Texas and Georgia since he appeared in season three of BET’s reality show Baldwin Hills. According to IMDB, he was also featured in Whiz Kids (2013) and Almost Famous: The Series (2012).
TRIVIA TIME
Speaking of reality shows and local TV talent, which former Texas TV meteorologist appeared on CBS' Big Brother?
But wait, there's more.
Sports fans in California might recognize Bragg's name from when he played football for UCLA.
Meanwhile, Adam Bennett is leaving KHOU 11 for KVUE Austin.
