Channel 4 Announced Permanent Morning Show Co-Anchor

This is not the only big change that took place at Channel 4 in 2026. The TV station announced back in February that it had promoted Sarah Minkewicz from fill-in morning show co-anchor to the job permanently. She had been filling in since Ali Touhey left in late 2025 to spend more time with her family.


Trina Catterson was named the weekend morning news anchor, taking over that role from Minkewicz in late March. She has been a reporter and fill-in anchor since joining WIVB Channel 4.
