News4LA 0 Posted March 15, 2010 Posted March 15, 2010 http://latimesblogs.latimes.com/showtracker/2010/03/former-eyewitness-news-anchor-kathy-vara-jumps-to-knbc.html Former KABC Channel 7 "Eyewitness News" morning anchor Kathy Vara will join KNBC Channel 4's early-morning newscast this month, escalating the heated competition among local stations in that time slot. Vara, who left KABC last year after a nine-year stint on the morning news, is scheduled to make her first on-air appearance March 29 on "Today in L.A." with current anchors Chris Schauble and Alycia Lane. She will be the sole anchor of the recently expanded 4:30 a.m.-5 a.m. newscast, and will join her fellow anchors from 5 a.m. to 7 a.m. as a "contributing anchor." The hiring marks Vara's return to KNBC. She anchored "Today in L.A." from 1994 to 2001.
