Johnny Resendiz joined CBS News Texas KTVT Dallas - Fort Worth in February 2025 as a sports reporter/producer.
"I’ve been lucky enough to have covered some MAJOR sporting events, but the opportunity to come home and allow my entire family to see me on the air is truly a dream come true," Resendiz posted. "It honestly still feels surreal. This kid from Mesquite now gets to cover his hometown high school, college and professional teams."
Resendiz comes from KTNV Channel 13 News Las Vegas, Nevada, where he has worked as a sports reporter/MMJ since October 2022. Jaewon Jung also recently left for a job in Texas.
Before that, he served as an MMJ at News On 6 KOTV Tulsa, Oklahoma, from 2020 to 2022.
Before entering professional television news, Resendiz honed his sports journalism skills as an Oklahoma State University student host for "The Poke Report." He was also a radio host for the Triple Play Sports Radio Network, which covers OSU football.
He interned with KOCO 5 News Oklahoma City.
