History Will Be Made on Monday Morning

On Monday morning, a little bit of TV history will be happening at Tegna’s KCEN in Waco, Texas.

KCEN’s morning newscast will be fronted by an all-Black Anchor team.

Jasmin Caldwell, Taheshah Moise, and new Meteorologist Ashley Carter will be the anchoring the morning newscasts.

While this has happened at broadcast stations before, it mostly only happens when people are filling in.

This is the full-time team for KCEN and it is truly awesome to see. It will also be a first for the market and it might be a first in the state of Texas.

The fact that an all-Black full-time anchor team is newsworthy in 2022, shows us how far we have yet to go.

But, it is a great step in the right direction.

Congratulations to the ladies and good luck on Monday.

Big props to KCEN for making the move.
