Tegna’s KSDK has hired a new Weekend Anchor and she’s young….

Morgan Young comes to St. Louis from the Weekend Anchor gig at WSFA in Montgomery, Alabama. Before her time in Alabama, she was an anchor/MMJ at KOMU in Columbia, Missouri.

“I’m so excited to join the 5 On Your Side team,” said Morgan. “I fell in love with St. Louis when I was a student at Mizzou, and I am so excited to do what I love and serve this community in a city that’s become a second home to me.”

“Viewers will notice an instant chemistry between Morgan and Casey when they team up on the anchor desk,” said Broadcast Managing Editor Ryan Dean. “Morgan is very passionate about journalism that makes a difference in our community, and we’re happy to welcome her to the 5 On Your Side family.”
