Longtime KHOU reporter Dave Fehling is bidding farewell to the Belo-owned CBS-affiliate.
“For nearly 18 years Dave Fehling has been one of this station’s top ‘go-to’ reporters,” executive news director Philip Bruce told Houston blogger Mike McGuff in a statement. “Now, after doing a standout job for us for so many years, Dave wants to try something new.”
Fehling first joined KHOU in 1989, before doing a stint as a correspondent for CBS News from 1994-98. He has since been a key member of the station’s investigative team. In addition to his work at KHOU, Fehling has taught broadcast news courses at the University of Houston.
Bruce says that Fehling has many options beyond KHOU: “He has the talent and experience to do many more great things in whatever he wants to pursue.”
