Ana Garcia returns to KNBC as investigative reporter
MEDIA DISTRICT WEST -- Journalist Ana Garcia, after briefly
working on a congressional campaign and in city government, returns
to KNBC-TV Channel 4 as an investigative reporter.
She previously worked for the station for two years, co-anchoring
the station’s “Mid Day Report” and also as a general assignment
reporter with an emphasis on investigative and political stories
before leaving in April 2001.
During her first stint at KNBC, Garcia reported on unethical
campaign contributions to elected officials who sat on the board of
the Entertainment Industry Development Corp. Her exclusive story led
to an 18-month investigation by the Los Angeles District Attorney’s
office and resulted in the resignation of the head of the EIDC.
For the past year, Garcia served as the communications director
for Los Angeles City Atty. Rocky Delgadillo.
