Channel 52 was established as KMTW, an independent station owned by Kaiser Broadcasting, which became KBSC-TV in 1968. Kaiser explored several pay television systems to operate using the station, but none materialized until Oak Industries acquired the station and made it the first and most successful operation in ON TV, boasting as many as 400,000 subscribers at its zenith. As subscription television declined, Oak sold KBSC-TV in 1985 to a group that relaunched it as Spanish-language KVEA and was instrumental in the foundation of Telemundo.

History edit

Foundation edit

On November 14, 1962, the Federal Communications Commission granted Kaiser Broadcasting, a division of Kaiser Industries, a construction permit for a new channel 52 television station to be licensed to Corona.[3] The station, named KICB before construction, signed on as KMTW from studios and a transmitter on Mount Wilson[3] on June 29, 1966.[4]

Kaiser had developed a chain of independent television stations in large cities that generally lacked independent stations at the outset. The Kaiser independents in such cities as Detroit (WKBD-TV), Philadelphia (WKBS-TV), and Cleveland (WKBF-TV), for instance, were typically the first or second such non-network outlets in operation. Los Angeles presented a very different market: three network stations, four VHF independents already operating, and (with KMTW activated) four UHF stations.[5] Kaiser knew it would need a different approach. Before signing on, it took an option on the Phonevision subscription television system developed by Zenith Electronics and licensed by Teco, gaining the right to use it in the Los Angeles market.[6] However, Phonevision's ability to be used nationally and legal cases over subscription television in California had left the system unapproved by the time channel 52 started broadcasting. Instead, KMTW subsisted on public service films, travelogues, and other cheap fare.[5][4]

On February 20, 1968,[3] KMTW became KBSC-TV, representing its ownership (Kaiser Broadcasting) and region (Southern California).[7] The Phonevision agreement expired in 1970, and the FCC gave approval the next year for Kaiser to begin using studios at 5746 Sunset Boulevard—Metromedia Square, home to KTTV.[3]

The gulf between KBSC-TV and its sister stations grew wider. In August 1972, Kaiser transferred the licenses for five of its stations to a partnership with Field Communications, of which it would own 77.5 percent. KBSC-TV was held out of the joint venture because it was scheduled to be sold.[8] Two months later, Kaiser announced it would seek to sell the station to the Pay Television Corporation[9] in a transaction filed with the FCC in February 1973.[3] The largest owner of Pay Television Corporation was Jean Marieanne McDonald.[10] The application remained pending at the FCC for nearly two years; ultimately, the company opted to franchise its technology and not be a station owner, resulting in the purchase being canceled in February 1975.[11]

The ON TV years edit

In December 1975, Kaiser filed to sell KBSC-TV to Oak Broadcasting Systems, a joint venture of television equipment manufacturer Oak Industries and Jerry Perenchio. The $1.2 million[12] transaction, which closed the next year, set the course for channel 52 to become the first station in their planned subscription television venture, as Oak moved the studios from Metromedia Square to a site on Grand Central Avenue in Glendale.[3]

On April 1, 1977,[13] 500 test subscribers in the San Fernando Valley became the first customers of ON TV, a subscription service broadcast over KBSC-TV that offered unedited, uninterrupted motion pictures, as well as limited slates of Los Angeles Dodgers, California Angels, Los Angeles Lakers and Los Angeles Kings games, during evening hours.[14] It was the second subscription television system in operation, with Wometco Home Theater having launched in New York City the previous month.[15] Japanese- and Korean-language programs that were seen on channel 52 under leased-time arrangements migrated to a new station, KSCI (channel 18), when it launched on June 30;[16] this allowed ON TV to air during evening hours beginning at 8 p.m.[17]

ON TV proved to be a success in its early years of operation, and nowhere was this more apparent than in Southern California, despite the arrival of SelecTV on KWHY-TV (channel 22) the next year. By April 1979, the service was signing up 12,000 subscribers a month.[18] By that year, it had grown its sports portfolio beyond the Dodgers, Angels, Lakers, and Kings to include USC Trojans college sports and Los Angeles Aztecs soccer, as well as horse racing from Santa Anita Park.[19] The STV venture transformed Oak Industries itself. In 1979, the company moved its headquarters from Crystal Lake, Illinois, to the new planned community of Rancho Bernardo, California, to be closer to the entertainment industry.[20]

Meanwhile, KBSC-TV changed its commercial program format to Spanish-language shows in 1980, airing 74 hours a week of commercial shows in Spanish and giving the market a second choice for Spanish-language viewing.[21] Most of its Spanish-language shows, including news from Mexico, were sourced from Mexico's Canal 13.[22]

ON TV grew nationally, with Oak and Chartwell developing operations separately, though the two remained partners in the Los Angeles operation. This arrangement, however, came into doubt in March 1981. The two sides disagreed over Perenchio's appointment of William M. Siegel, the chief executive of Chartwell, as the general manager of National Subscription Television—Los Angeles. Oak refused to consent to the appointment and claimed that Chartwell and Perenchio had "surreptitiously" placed Siegel on the payroll; it was reported that Oak had no dispute with Siegel but wanted to affirm its authority as 51 percent owner of the venture.[23] Oak chairman Carter was surprised to learn that Siegel made more money than he did. Further, Perenchio drew Oak's ire when the Chartwell ON TV operation in Detroit ordered new decoder boxes from one of Oak's competitors.[24]

Oak and Chartwell settled that September; the suit was dropped, and Oak bought out Chartwell's 49 percent share of National Subscription Television for $55 million.[25] By May 1982, ON TV in southern California had reached its zenith—400,000 subscribers,[26] representing two-thirds of Oak's base of some 600,000 paying customers in its five ON TV markets, not counting Detroit, Cincinnati, or Portland.[27]

After the FCC repealed a rule in late 1982 that required television stations offering a subscription service to broadcast at least 20 hours a week of unencrypted programming, KBSC began running ON TV 24 hours a day and displaced its existing Spanish-language daytime programming.[28] However, the STV industry took a national nosedive moving into 1983. A national recession and the increased penetration of multichannel cable television created new and immediate financial headwinds for Oak and ON TV. In March 1984, the company announced that it was being investigated by the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC),[29] and it posted a loss of $166.1 million for 1983.[30] One of the company's auditors, Arthur Andersen, qualified its statement, fearing that Oak could not fully realize its $134 million investment in subscription television.[30]

After having shuttered two ON TV operations in markets with combative station owners and high cable penetration—Dallas–Fort Worth and Phoenix—Oak moved to sell its station in the Miami market in 1984 to John Blair & Co., which planned Spanish-language programming.[31] Oak intended to get out of Los Angeles next. In August—after a year of speculation—it emerged that Oak was in talks to sell the Los Angeles system to SelecTV, which had competed alongside ON TV for six years in the Southern California market.[32] A deal was initially reached, then collapsed.[33] However, SelecTV ultimately acquired the Los Angeles operation, by then with just 156,000 subscribers, in February 1985.[34]

KVEA edit

The same month that Oak sold the ON TV subscriber base to SelecTV, the company reached a deal to sell KBSC-TV itself to an investor group, Estrella Communications, headed by former Brazilian television network head Joe Wallach, in a $30 million transaction.[35]

Financially, the market is more than ripe for a second station. Our success does not have to come at the expense of Channel 34.

Paul Niedermayer, first general manager of KVEA[36]

SelecTV programming aired for a time on KBSC while the new owners readied the station's next chapter. On November 24, 1985, KVEA debuted. The new Spanish-language station sought to be an alternative to KMEX, the dominant outlet in southern California, with a wider range of U.S. and Latin American shows than KMEX's mostly Mexican fare and children's programming, as well as local news and a newsmagazine program.[36]

The creation of a second Spanish-language network had first been mooted in 1984. NetSpan's founding affiliates were WNJU in New York, ethnic independent KSCI-TV channel 18 for the Los Angeles market, and Chicago's WBBS-TV.[37] By 1986, KVEA had replaced KSCI (and WCIU-TV had entered in Chicago); the network offered three hours a day of programming plus specials.[38]

Estrella Communications was a subsidiary of Reliance Capital Group, led by corporate raider Saul Steinberg. Less than a year after starting up KVEA, Reliance acquired John Blair & Co., which agreed to be purchased for $300 million to avoid a hostile takeover. The deal united KVEA with WSCV—the Miami-area station Oak had sold off two years prior—and WKAQ-TV in San Juan, Puerto Rico.[39] In October 1986, Reliance then bought WNJU.[40] On January 12, 1987,[41] NetSpan became Telemundo, supplying additional programming and national news,[42] which helped the station attract national advertisers.[43]

The investment in KVEA quickly paid off. By February 1987, the 15-month-old operation had achieved a 34 percent share of the Spanish-speaking audience in Los Angeles,[42] with the market having grown large enough that KMEX did not lose any of its audience.[44] It covered community events in Spanish, produced 11 and a half hours of local news a week, aired a weekly half-hour highlight show of the Los Angeles Dodgers hosted by longtime Dodger Spanish-language voice Jaime Jarrín;[42] furthermore, KVEA was the production base for new Spanish-language shows screened nationally, including La piñata de los $25,000 (The $25,000 Piñata), the first nationally syndicated Spanish-language game show.[45]

At the end of the 1980s, KVEA came under some criticism for lack of representation of Mexicans—who comprised 90 percent of channel 52's viewership—in management. After Frank Cruz, a former KNBC news anchor who had been with the station since the 1985 launch, left in early 1989,[46] three ranking Mexican staffers resigned together that June.[47] The dispute escalated into calls by the National Hispanic Media Coalition for an advertising boycott of the station[48] and picketing of its studios by protesters who felt the station favored Cubans in hiring and programming.[49]

KVEA's next bout of station turmoil came in 1997. Between February and August, seven longtime staffers were dismissed for supposed budgetary reasons, though one anchor, Ana Cecilia Granados, alleged that new manager José Ronstadt had a bias toward Mexicans and ousted her for being Central American.[50] Meanwhile, employees sought to unionize KVEA; they voted to form a union, but management refused voluntary recognition.[50] With another boycott threatened, KVEA recognized the union in November 1997, right before the start of a ratings survey.[51]

On January 15, 2001, KVEA launched an expanded news department, doubling its budget and its weekday output, as well as adding weekend news programs for the first time.[52] The network then purchased KWHY-TV channel 22, its former pay TV competitor and later a Spanish-language independent, for $239 million in June 2001, creating a duopoly.[53] Work was already underway on a comprehensive overhaul of channel 52's studios, and channel 22 was then integrated into the operation.[54]

NBC acquisition edit

In October 2001, NBC announced it would buy Telemundo. The combination of the two parties owned three stations in the market; the FCC conditioned approval of the Telemundo acquisition on the divestiture of KWHY.[55] Integration of the two operations took a major step forward in 2003, when 250 Telemundo employees moved to KNBC's studios in Burbank.[56] KWHY sales and programming functions remained in Glendale while NBC fought for a waiver to keep all three stations;[57] the next year, the FCC revised its media ownership rules to allow ownership of three stations in the largest markets.[58] NBC would sell off KWHY in 2011 to the Meruelo Group as a condition of its merger with Comcast.[59]

In 2007, NBC announced that it would move its Los Angeles local operation to a site at Universal Studios Hollywood.[60] The complex was completed in 2014, with separate studios for KNBC and KVEA and a shared newsroom.[61] Despite being an integrated operation, unlike at KNBC, KVEA's anchors and reporters remained non-union until voting 18–1 to unionize with SAG-AFTRA in January 2023.[62]

News department edit

Local news programming on channel 52 began with the KVEA relaunch, in the form of a 15-minute program called VEA Noticias.[36] One of the station's early coups was its coverage of the 1986 San Salvador earthquake, which drew new news viewers and started competition with KMEX.[63] This quickly expanded into a full news service, and the station produced 11 and a half hours of local news a week by 1987.[42]

To daily 6 and 11 p.m. news programs, KVEA added morning and midday newscasts when the news department expanded in January 2001, doubling its budget.[52] In October 2001, a 5 am newscast also debuted.[64] In 2002, KVEA notched its first win at 11 p.m. since November 1993.[64] Eduardo Quezada, who had worked for KMEX for 28 years and had previously been described as a Los Angeles institution at channel 34,[65] resigned from his position at that station and joined KVEA in 2003, citing the attention NBC was giving the news department and its then-airing of six hours a day of local news, doubling KMEX's output.[66] By 2007, Quezada had resigned to become the vice president of news and public relations for Una Vez Más Holdings.[67]

In 2007, Los Angeles mayor Antonio Villaraigosa admitted that he had an extramarital affair with Mirthala Salinas, a KVEA reporter who at one time covered the political beat.[68] The station suspended her for two months without pay for failing to disclose the conflict for interest and reassigned her to KVEA's bureau in Riverside.[69] She failed to report to work there and left the company.[70]

Cuts led to the removal of the morning newscast before it was reinstated in 2011 alongside the launch of a new weekly public affairs program.[71] Beginning in 2014, a series of local news expansions at Telemundo have added hours of news to KVEA's output. A 5:30 p.m. show debuted at KVEA and 13 other Telemundo stations in 2014.[72] In 2016, a 5 p.m. half-hour was introduced.[73]

pay television systems to operate using the station but none materialized until Oak Industries acquired the station and made it the first and most successful operation in ON TV boasting as many as 400 000 subscribers at its zenith As subscription television declined Oak sold KBSC TV in 1985 to a group that relaunched it as Spanish language KVEA and was instrumental in the foundation of Telemundo

3 Translator 4 References 5 External linksHistory editFoundation edit On November 14 1962 the Federal Communications Commission granted Kaiser Broadcasting a division of Kaiser Industries a construction permit for a new channel 52 television station to be licensed to Corona 3 The station named KICB before construction signed on as KMTW from studios and a transmitter on Mount Wilson 3 on June 29 1966 4 Kaiser had developed a chain of independent television stations in large cities that generally lacked independent stations at the outset The Kaiser independents in such cities as Detroit WKBD TV Philadelphia WKBS TV and Cleveland WKBF TV for instance were typically the first or second such non network outlets in operation Los Angeles presented a very different market three network stations four VHF independents already operating and with KMTW activated four UHF stations 5 Kaiser knew it would need a different approach Before signing on it took an option on the Phonevision subscription television system developed by Zenith Electronics and licensed by Teco gaining the right to use it in the Los Angeles market 6 However Phonevision s ability to be used nationally and legal cases over subscription television in California had left the system unapproved by the time channel 52 started broadcasting Instead KMTW subsisted on public service films travelogues and other cheap fare 5 4 On February 20 1968 3 KMTW became KBSC TV representing its ownership Kaiser Broadcasting and region Southern California 7 The Phonevision agreement expired in 1970 and the FCC gave approval the next year for Kaiser to begin using studios at 5746 Sunset Boulevard Metromedia Square home to KTTV 3 The gulf between KBSC TV and its sister stations grew wider In August 1972 Kaiser transferred the licenses for five of its stations to a partnership with Field Communications of which it would own 77 5 percent KBSC TV was held out of the joint venture because it was scheduled to be sold 8 Two months later Kaiser announced it would seek to sell the station to the Pay Television Corporation 9 in a transaction filed with the FCC in February 1973 3 The largest owner of Pay Television Corporation was Jean Marieanne McDonald 10 The application remained pending at the FCC for nearly two years ultimately the company opted to franchise its technology and not be a station owner resulting in the purchase being canceled in February 1975 11 The ON TV years edit Further information ON TV TV network In December 1975 Kaiser filed to sell KBSC TV to Oak Broadcasting Systems a joint venture of television equipment manufacturer Oak Industries and Jerry Perenchio The 1 2 million 12 transaction which closed the next year set the course for channel 52 to become the first station in their planned subscription television venture as Oak moved the studios from Metromedia Square to a site on Grand Central Avenue in Glendale 3 On April 1 1977 13 500 test subscribers in the San Fernando Valley became the first customers of ON TV a subscription service broadcast over KBSC TV that offered unedited uninterrupted motion pictures as well as limited slates of Los Angeles Dodgers California Angels Los Angeles Lakers and Los Angeles Kings games during evening hours 14 It was the second subscription television system in operation with Wometco Home Theater having launched in New York City the previous month 15 Japanese and Korean language programs that were seen on channel 52 under leased time arrangements migrated to a new station KSCI channel 18 when it launched on June 30 16 this allowed ON TV to air during evening hours beginning at 8 p m 17 ON TV proved to be a success in its early years of operation and nowhere was this more apparent than in Southern California despite the arrival of SelecTV on KWHY TV channel 22 the next year By April 1979 the service was signing up 12 000 subscribers a month 18 By that year it had grown its sports portfolio beyond the Dodgers Angels Lakers and Kings to include USC Trojans college sports and Los Angeles Aztecs soccer as well as horse racing from Santa Anita Park 19 The STV venture transformed Oak Industries itself In 1979 the company moved its headquarters from Crystal Lake Illinois to the new planned community of Rancho Bernardo California to be closer to the entertainment industry 20 Meanwhile KBSC TV changed its commercial program format to Spanish language shows in 1980 airing 74 hours a week of commercial shows in Spanish and giving the market a second choice for Spanish language viewing 21 Most of its Spanish language shows including news from Mexico were sourced from Mexico s Canal 13 22 ON TV grew nationally with Oak and Chartwell developing operations separately though the two remained partners in the Los Angeles operation This arrangement however came into doubt in March 1981 The two sides disagreed over Perenchio s appointment of William M Siegel the chief executive of Chartwell as the general manager of National Subscription Television Los Angeles Oak refused to consent to the appointment and claimed that Chartwell and Perenchio had surreptitiously placed Siegel on the payroll it was reported that Oak had no dispute with Siegel but wanted to affirm its authority as 51 percent owner of the venture 23 Oak chairman Carter was surprised to learn that Siegel made more money than he did Further Perenchio drew Oak s ire when the Chartwell ON TV operation in Detroit ordered new decoder boxes from one of Oak s competitors 24 Oak and Chartwell settled that September the suit was dropped and Oak bought out Chartwell s 49 percent share of National Subscription Television for 55 million 25 By May 1982 ON TV in southern California had reached its zenith 400 000 subscribers 26 representing two thirds of Oak s base of some 600 000 paying customers in its five ON TV markets not counting Detroit Cincinnati or Portland 27 After the FCC repealed a rule in late 1982 that required television stations offering a subscription service to broadcast at least 20 hours a week of unencrypted programming KBSC began running ON TV 24 hours a day and displaced its existing Spanish language daytime programming 28 However the STV industry took a national nosedive moving into 1983 A national recession and the increased penetration of multichannel cable television created new and immediate financial headwinds for Oak and ON TV In March 1984 the company announced that it was being investigated by the Securities and Exchange Commission SEC 29 and it posted a loss of 166 1 million for 1983 30 One of the company s auditors Arthur Andersen qualified its statement fearing that Oak could not fully realize its 134 million investment in subscription television 30 After having shuttered two ON TV operations in markets with combative station owners and high cable penetration Dallas Fort Worth and Phoenix Oak moved to sell its station in the Miami market in 1984 to John Blair amp Co which planned Spanish language programming 31 Oak intended to get out of Los Angeles next In August after a year of speculation it emerged that Oak was in talks to sell the Los Angeles system to SelecTV which had competed alongside ON TV for six years in the Southern California market 32 A deal was initially reached then collapsed 33 However SelecTV ultimately acquired the Los Angeles operation by then with just 156 000 subscribers in February 1985 34 KVEA edit The same month that Oak sold the ON TV subscriber base to SelecTV the company reached a deal to sell KBSC TV itself to an investor group Estrella Communications headed by former Brazilian television network head Joe Wallach in a 30 million transaction 35 Financially the market is more than ripe for a second station Our success does not have to come at the expense of Channel 34 Paul Niedermayer first general manager of KVEA 36 SelecTV programming aired for a time on KBSC while the new owners readied the station s next chapter On November 24 1985 KVEA debuted The new Spanish language station sought to be an alternative to KMEX the dominant outlet in southern California with a wider range of U S and Latin American shows than KMEX s mostly Mexican fare and children s programming as well as local news and a newsmagazine program 36 The creation of a second Spanish language network had first been mooted in 1984 NetSpan s founding affiliates were WNJU in New York ethnic independent KSCI TV channel 18 for the Los Angeles market and Chicago s WBBS TV 37 By 1986 KVEA had replaced KSCI and WCIU TV had entered in Chicago the network offered three hours a day of programming plus specials 38 Estrella Communications was a subsidiary of Reliance Capital Group led by corporate raider Saul Steinberg Less than a year after starting up KVEA Reliance acquired John Blair amp Co which agreed to be purchased for 300 million to avoid a hostile takeover The deal united KVEA with WSCV the Miami area station Oak had sold off two years prior and WKAQ TV in San Juan Puerto Rico 39 In October 1986 Reliance then bought WNJU 40 On January 12 1987 41 NetSpan became Telemundo supplying additional programming and national news 42 which helped the station attract national advertisers 43 The investment in KVEA quickly paid off By February 1987 the 15 month old operation had achieved a 34 percent share of the Spanish speaking audience in Los Angeles 42 with the market having grown large enough that KMEX did not lose any of its audience 44 It covered community events in Spanish produced 11 and a half hours of local news a week aired a weekly half hour highlight show of the Los Angeles Dodgers hosted by longtime Dodger Spanish language voice Jaime Jarrin 42 furthermore KVEA was the production base for new Spanish language shows screened nationally including La pinata de los 25 000 The 25 000 Pinata the first nationally syndicated Spanish language game show 45 At the end of the 1980s KVEA came under some criticism for lack of representation of Mexicans who comprised 90 percent of channel 52 s viewership in management After Frank Cruz a former KNBC news anchor who had been with the station since the 1985 launch left in early 1989 46 three ranking Mexican staffers resigned together that June 47 The dispute escalated into calls by the National Hispanic Media Coalition for an advertising boycott of the station 48 and picketing of its studios by protesters who felt the station favored Cubans in hiring and programming 49 KVEA s next bout of station turmoil came in 1997 Between February and August seven longtime staffers were dismissed for supposed budgetary reasons though one anchor Ana Cecilia Granados alleged that new manager Jose Ronstadt had a bias toward Mexicans and ousted her for being Central American 50 Meanwhile employees sought to unionize KVEA they voted to form a union but management refused voluntary recognition 50 With another boycott threatened KVEA recognized the union in November 1997 right before the start of a ratings survey 51 On January 15 2001 KVEA launched an expanded news department doubling its budget and its weekday output as well as adding weekend news programs for the first time 52 The network then purchased KWHY TV channel 22 its former pay TV competitor and later a Spanish language independent for 239 million in June 2001 creating a duopoly 53 Work was already underway on a comprehensive overhaul of channel 52 s studios and channel 22 was then integrated into the operation 54 NBC acquisition edit In October 2001 NBC announced it would buy Telemundo The combination of the two parties owned three stations in the market the FCC conditioned approval of the Telemundo acquisition on the divestiture of KWHY 55 Integration of the two operations took a major step forward in 2003 when 250 Telemundo employees moved to KNBC s studios in Burbank 56 KWHY sales and programming functions remained in Glendale while NBC fought for a waiver to keep all three stations 57 the next year the FCC revised its media ownership rules to allow ownership of three stations in the largest markets 58 NBC would sell off KWHY in 2011 to the Meruelo Group as a condition of its merger with Comcast 59 In 2007 NBC announced that it would move its Los Angeles local operation to a site at Universal Studios Hollywood 60 The complex was completed in 2014 with separate studios for KNBC and KVEA and a shared newsroom 61 Despite being an integrated operation unlike at KNBC KVEA s anchors and reporters remained non union until voting 18 1 to unionize with SAG AFTRA in January 2023 62 News department edit nbsp Studio building shared by KNBC and KVEALocal news programming on channel 52 began with the KVEA relaunch in the form of a 15 minute program called VEA Noticias 36 One of the station s early coups was its coverage of the 1986 San Salvador earthquake which drew new news viewers and started competition with KMEX 63 This quickly expanded into a full news service and the station produced 11 and a half hours of local news a week by 1987 42 To daily 6 and 11 p m news programs KVEA added morning and midday newscasts when the news department expanded in January 2001 doubling its budget 52 In October 2001 a 5 am newscast also debuted 64 In 2002 KVEA notched its first win at 11 p m since November 1993 64 Eduardo Quezada who had worked for KMEX for 28 years and had previously been described as a Los Angeles institution at channel 34 65 resigned from his position at that station and joined KVEA in 2003 citing the attention NBC was giving the news department and its then airing of six hours a day of local news doubling KMEX s output 66 By 2007 Quezada had resigned to become the vice president of news and public relations for Una Vez Mas Holdings 67 In 2007 Los Angeles mayor Antonio Villaraigosa admitted that he had an extramarital affair with Mirthala Salinas a KVEA reporter who at one time covered the political beat 68 The station suspended her for two months without pay for failing to disclose the conflict for interest and reassigned her to KVEA s bureau in Riverside 69 She failed to report to work there and left the company 70 Cuts led to the removal of the morning newscast before it was reinstated in 2011 alongside the launch of a new weekly public affairs program 71 Beginning in 2014 a series of local news expansions at Telemundo have added hours of news to KVEA s output A 5 30 p m show debuted at KVEA and 13 other Telemundo stations in 2014 72 In 2016 a 5 p m half hour
