KHOU 11 Houston is experimenting

khou 11 houston
KHOU 11 Houston is going through some ch-ch-ch-ch-changes as David Bowie once sang, or at least the TEGNA station seems to be experimenting in the way the famous singer used to do from album to album.

First, have you noticed former morning anchor Ron TreviƱo (current 4 p.m. anchor) back on the AM newscast ever since Kimberly Davis left?

Also, a Channel 11 viewer told me the sports segment disappeared from the 6 p.m. newscast about three weeks ago but is still in the 5 p.m. newscast. Another viewer told me sports anchor Jason Bristol was anchoring the 4 p.m. newscast (which I believe he has done in the past).

So, to get to the bottom of all of this, I asked KHOU 11 for the 411.

"At KHOU11, we're incredibly fortunate to have a wealth of talent and creativity," President & General Manager David Loving told mikemcguff.com. "As the new general manager,  my focus is on harnessing that potential and exploring various avenues to see what opportunities we can unlock. We're in an exciting phase of experimentation and innovation, and I’m eager to see how we can leverage our diverse skills and ideas to bring fresh, engaging content to our audience. We are looking forward to seeing if some of these recent experiments can help us do an even better job of Standing for Houston!"

In 2023, KHOU did an anchor swap experiment too. 

Stay tuned.

If you see any more changes, please let me know!
