Stripped of UPN programming, KTXA-TV (Channel 21) will chart its own course in prime-time with two hours of local news a night.
TXA 21 News: First in Prime launches Monday at 7 p.m. in a new studio with newly hired anchors save for incumbent sports provider Gina Miller, formerly of WFAA-TV (Channel 8).
Channel 21 station manager Gary Schneider promises "hyper-local, content-rich" newscasts from an ethnically diverse news team. Principal newcomers are news anchors Kenneth Taylor, Tracy Kornet, Chris Salcedo and Kaushal Patel, meteorologist Garry Seith, weathercaster Amanda Sanchez and sports anchor/reporter Chuck Fisher.
Channel 21 is the sister station of KTVT-TV (Channel 11). Both are under the wing of CBS Corporation, which now has 39 stations nationwide, 21 of them tied to the CBS network.
