If the call letters sound familiar, KFOX is the tv station that Liz Dueweke ran to when she left Seattle’s KCPQ FOX 13. Changes mostly affect KFOX sister station KDBC for now.
Sinclair Broadcast Group will be making changes in its news production for channels CBS4 and KFOX14 starting Aug. 5.
In an email to the El Paso Times, representatives for Sinclair responded, “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 its 10 p.m. newscast, adding a simulcast of KFOX14’s newscasts in other dayparts. A reconceptualized newscast will debut on CBS4 later this year,” the email stated.
The El Paso Times asked if the station changes would result in layoffs. The company declined to answer the question. Anchor John Purvis is currently the sole anchor of CBS4’s 10 p.m. newscast.
News Channel 14-KFOX also will have an expansion in 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, according to an email sent to the El Paso Times from Sinclair’s corporate communications.
