Jackie Simien Returns to News






Former KFDM News Anchor Jackie Simien is returning to TV news. Sources tell FRONT ROW that Simien is the new main anchor at KBMT Channel 12. She will co-anchor the 6 and 10 p.m. with Kevin Steele. She replaces Beverly Brooks. It's one of several changes at the station as new management makes its mark. Reporter Brian Burns will co-anchor the morning show with Tracy Kennick at a new time from 5 a.m. to 7 a.m. Burns will also anchor a new 11:30 a.m. newscast on NBC. Brooks will co-anchor the five with Anchor Deedra Wilson and they will also anchor a 6:30 p.m. on the NBC affiliate. KBMT Channel 12 recently bought the NBC affiliate. The changes will take effect Sept. 16.
