KNBC-TV Channel 4 has canceled “Midday Report,” its 11 a.m. newscast
anchored by Kim Baldonado, and is running repeats of “Access
Hollywood” in its place. The newscast, which aired for the last time
Feb. 12, “was taken off the schedule in order to reallocate resources,”
according to KNBC spokeswoman Erin Dittman.

Baldonado, who has won awards for her coverage of education and
homelessness, will continue as a general assignment reporter for the
station. She took over “Midday Report” in July after serving as a
weekend anchor.
