Johnson will c0-anchor with Lucy Noland beginning in mid-September. The noon newscast will also expand to a full hour on weekdays. “It’s part of NBC4’s culture to produce high-quality news content for Southern California’s unique audience,” Todd Mokhtari, KNBC vice president of news, said in a statement. “These changes reflect our priority to deliver on that tradition every day, every newscast.” Mokhtari joined KNBC in June from KIRO in Seattle.
