Buried at the Bottom

Christine Noël

Yesterday, FTVLive told you that Graham’s KPRC announced that Anchor Sofia Ojeda was returning to the station after she left the Houston station 4 months ago.

KPRC posted a long story on Ojeda returning and Lisa Hernandez being moved to dayside shows.

There was the glowing quotes from KPRC GM Phil Lane, ““KPRC 2 has a wealth of current and former talent,” says Lane. “I’m thrilled that Sofia will be returning to KPRC 2 News Today and so happy to be able to promote Lisa to the afternoons where she will continue her great work as an important and valuable part of our team.”

But buried at the bottom of the story was this quote from Lane, “We want to thank Christine Noël for her hard work and professionalism,” says Lane. “We wish her all the best as she pursues her next chapter in life.”

It appears that Noël was the odd person out and is headed for the exit. Noël was hired back in 2019 to anchor the Noon and 4PM newscasts, the same newscasts that now will be anchored by Hernandez.

I guess we should give KPRC credit for mentioning that Christine Noël is out. Often times stations just let them leave and tell the viewers nothing.

Although, they did a good job of burying it.

Just saying…
