Not sure how he does it, but Walt Gray is now anchoring the 5 p.m. newscast along with Edie Lambert AND anchoring the 5-7 a.m. broadcast.

Also reporters Leticia Ordaz and Sharokina Shams are now reporting weekday mornings rather than in the afternoon/ evenings.

And Anchor/ Reporter Pamela Wu will be leaving KCRA to work for the Dean at UC Davis School of Law as a Director of Marketing and Communications... She starts next week!

Mayoral Candidates Debate Part. ll

This time it was KCRA's turn to interview the mayoral candidates about their feelings, opinions, and concerns are for the city of Sacramento. The debate was an hour long which took place from 7- 8 p.m. at the KCRA 3 studios in Downtown Sacramento which was hosted by Edie Lambert and Kevin Riggs. The candidates also got the chance to answer themselves questions and also questions asked from viewers and simple questions brought up from KFBK and KCRA. This debate was a bit different than the one News10 hosted earlier this month. News10 had ALL the candidates running for major lined up at the table and each candidate had 30 seconds to respond. KCRA's debate was focused on the two main candidates which have more attention in the race. Either way, very good information for voters who are not sure who to vote for. If you missed the broadcast, you can catch it online at their website at the link provided below.
