KCAL9 is getting a refresh. The local Los Angeles news station has been rebranded to KCAL News.
As part of the change, KCAL will launch a seven-hour morning news block beginning Thursday, Jan. 5. The morning coverage, which will run weekdays from 4 a.m. to 11 a.m., will be led by Kalyna Astrinos, Chris Holmstrom, Marci Gonzalez, Rudabeh Shahbazi, Jamie Yuccas and Amy Johnson.
In addition to being broadcast live on KCAL, the morning newscasts will be available on the CBS News Los Angeles streaming channel. KCAL News Mornings will air on both CBS2 and KCAL from 6–7 a.m.
