Here is the statement Sinclair Broadcast Group provided mikemcguff.com:
"Beginning August 5, we will be making changes to the way we produce news in El Paso and refocusing our resources across our two stations in the market, CBS4 and KFOX14.
In the short-term, CBS4 will continue to air its10pm newscast, adding a simulcast of KFOX14’s newscasts in other dayparts. A reconceptualized newscast will debut on CBS4 later this year.
KFOX14 will see an expansion of news content, with the addition of several hours of newscasts and The National Desk broadcasts joining the station’s lineup over the next several months.
Sinclair remains committed to local journalism in the communities which we serve. The refocusing of resources in El Paso will allow us to ensure the long-term success of the stations and continue to bring the top local, regional and national news to the market."
Rosemary Montañez, recently promoted to anchor for competitor ABC 7 KVIA's "Good Morning El Paso," posted a supportive message about the journalists she competes against.
