FTVLive has been urging stations for years to start putting more women and minorities into the corner offices of TV stations and it appears that it is now happening.

NBC announced that stating next month, Elizabeth Flores will be the new News Director at WCAU in Philly.

Flores is currently the Assistant News Director for WABC in New York and will be moving to Philly.

“We are beyond thrilled to have Elizabeth join our team as Vice President of News,” said WCAU GM Ric Harris. “She is an exceptional strategic news leader who embraces innovation in journalism and digital engagement across all platforms and in two languages. Her intimate knowledge and deep appreciation for the Hispanic community will also help us to strengthen our already strong storytelling capabilities for the Spanish-speaking audiences we proudly serve.”

“I’m so excited to join the NBC10 and Telemundo62 family. It will be a privilege to work with an exceptional team of journalists in both English and Spanish,” said Flores. “I am looking forward to getting to know the communities that we serve and making the City of Philadelphia my home.”

She replaces Anzio Williams, who now heads up diversity at the Peacock.
