The expanded newscasts will begin on June 11 in conjunction with the launch of a new website and new mobile app.
“For the first time ever, KTDO will deliver El Paso’s audiences more local news than any other Spanish-language station in the market,” said Lorena Castañeda, station manager. “By doubling down on our on-air and digital news offerings, our viewers can now access their local news and information wherever they go.”

Sanchez has worked as reporter for KTDO for the past six years. This is her first time in a permanent anchor role for the station.
