Bayona and Garza named anchors of KSTS’ 5 pm newscast

August 23, 2016 by Veronica Villafañe

César Bayona and Blanca Garza will co-anchor the 5 pm, as well as the 5:30 pm newscast.

Longtime Telemundo 48 co-anchors César Bayona and Blanca Garza have been chosen to anchor the station’s new 5 pm weekday newscast when it debuts on Monday, September 26.

Both currently co-anchor Noticiero Telemundo 48 at 5:30 pm. They previously also shared the desk Monday-Friday at 6 and 11 pm.

That changed on June 27 when Lorena Domínguez started co-anchoring the 6 and 11 pm newscasts with César. She had previously anchored KSTS’ morning newscasts, which were canceled effective that day.

The anchor swap was initially announced in February, but was postponed until June.

    I knew they were going to add to Blanca roles, after demoting her from the 6pm and 11pm anchor roles, however since the cancellation of the morning news they started doing morning updates, really it for what coming up at 5:30. But who cares Cesar is now the lead anchor like always, and now he’ll still get to be with Blanca shareing the anchor desk not for 1 show, but on September 26 2 shows.
