Breaking: Tegna Houston ND is Out

A memo went out to the staff at Tegna’s KHOU, informing them that News Director Liz Roldan is leaving the station.

Roldan came from WFOR in Miami and will be leaving in early October.

FTVLive will have more on the story.

Here’s the memo to the staff:

Team,

I am writing to share with you that Liz Roldan will be departing KHOU at the beginning of October.

Liz’s contributions as KHOU’s News Director have been numerous over her tenure at the station. She played a key role in helping KHOU continue to “Stand for Houston” and her passion for journalism and coaching talent are well known.

I have asked Stuart to lead the news team in the interim after Liz departs on October 4th, and he has graciously agreed to help make sure we don’t skip a beat.

Please join me in thanking Liz and wishing her the very best in her next chapter and beyond.
