Leigh Waldman promoted to CNN Correspondent


Leigh Waldman is moving up at CNN after her days at KSAT 12 San Antonio.

The network announced on September 23, 2026, that Waldman has been promoted to CNN Correspondent. Beginning October 12, she will be based in Los Angeles and report across CNN platforms as part of the network’s domestic news coverage.

Waldman previously served as a New York-based correspondent for CNN Newsource, reporting stories for CNN’s more than 1,000 affiliate partners nationwide.

Since joining CNN, Waldman has covered major national stories, including the deadly Fourth of July flooding in Central Texas, the impact of hurricanes along the Gulf Coast, school shootings, and the historic launch and return of astronauts aboard Boeing’s Starliner.

Waldman shared the news on Instagram, writing:


“Trading the NYC skyline for the Hollywood hills. So thrilled to start working alongside my incredible colleagues in Los Angeles. There’s no place like CNN, I’m honored beyond words to keep working with these amazing journalists.”


Her promotion marks another step in a career that has included stops in Texas and Nebraska.

Before joining CNN in 2024, Waldman was an investigative reporter at KSAT 12 in San Antonio. She joined the station in 2021 and was promoted to the KSAT Investigates team in 2023.

At KSAT, Waldman led investigative and enterprise reporting for the station’s 10 p.m. newscast and played a major role in the station’s team coverage of the 2022 Robb Elementary School shooting in Uvalde. That work earned an Emmy Award, a regional Edward R. Murrow Award, two Telly Awards and a Texas Broadcast News Award.

She also created and hosted “Texas Crime Stories,” a multiplatform true-crime podcast focused on high-impact cases across Texas.

Waldman announced in April 2024 that she was leaving KSAT. She later revealed her next move was to CNN Newsource in New York.

The CNN connection was particularly meaningful for Waldman, who previously interned at the network’s Atlanta headquarters. When she left CNN as an intern in 2016, she said she always hoped to return as a correspondent.

“When I left CNN in 2016 as an intern, I always said I would be back again as a correspondent for this incredible network,” Waldman wrote in 2024. “After years of hard work, dreams do come true. So thrilled to work alongside these incredible journalists.”

Before KSAT, Waldman was a weekend morning anchor at WOWT in Omaha, Nebraska.

She began her professional television career at KAVU 25 in Victoria, Texas, working as an anchor and producer.

Waldman graduated from Texas Tech University in Lubbock, where she earned a bachelor’s degree in journalism.

Texas media layoffs in Fort Worth and San Antonio


Texas saw two media layoffs this week: one at the Fort Worth Star-Telegram and another at Sinclair Broadcast Group's duopoly of News 4 San Antonio WOAI and FOX 29 San Antonio KABB.

According to the News Guild, more than 90 unionized journalists and media workers across 17 publications were laid off Thursday from McClatchy newspapers (owner of the Fort Worth Star-Telegram) around the United States, including at The Miami Herald, The Sacramento Bee and The Kansas City Star. 

Fort Worth Star-Telegram opinion editor Ryan J. Rusak, reporter Maven Navarro and Service Journalism Editor Jake Harris were among those affected.

"I’m sorry to say that my position at the Star-Telegram was among those eliminated this week by McClatchy. The outcome was not unexpected, but the specific timing was," posted on X.  "I enjoyed my 7+ years there, got to use some different muscles, wrote some things I'm still proud of and made some good friends. I'm open to roles inside and out of journalism. I assure you that my skills go beyond snarking on this site, though I do think I'm pretty good at that, too."

"Today, after four months, I was laid off from my first 'big girl' job," posted Navarro.  "I am so grateful for my time at @startelegram where I met the best people. Fort Worth has phenomenal reporters covering their city, and I am so lucky to have had the opportunity to learn from them."





Meanwhile, in San Antonio, News 4 San Antonio WOAI and FOX 29 San Antonio KABB owner Sinclair told MySA.

"WOAI and KABB are committed to positioning the stations for long-term sustainability and we have made the difficult decision to eliminate a small number of positions in our content center [newsroom]," the spokesperson said. "These changes will allow us to operate more efficiently and continue delivering exceptional local news and content to San Antonio viewers. We thank those affected for their contributions to the stations and the community."

I have not seen anything on social media about the Sinclair San Antonio cuts, nor have any on-air folks been removed from the stations' bios sites.

Back in August, I broke the news that Sinclair sister station CBS Austin KEYE had job cuts.
