Nexstar’s KXRM (Colorado Springs) lost an Anchor to a distillery, but has found another talent from American Idol.

The station has hired Claudia Garofalo, a Texas native,who most recently was host of the lifestyle show "San Antonio Living" and served as a traffic anchor at Sinclair’s WOAI.

Garofalo is also a professional singer who participated in the seventh season of "American Idol." She made it to the Hollywood rounds, but not win the grand prize.

So now, she’ll work for Nexstar.

Seems about right…
