WTXL Tallahassee Promotes Karah Bailey To Morning Anchor

Karah Bailey

Scripps-owned ABC affiliate WTXL Tallahassee, Fla., has named newsroom veteran Karah Bailey Sunrise anchor.

She has been a staple at WTXL, starting as an intern in 2016 before joining as the team as an MMJ in 2017.

Bailey is a graduate of Florida A&M University, where she started her college career as a nursing major before embracing her passion for storytelling by switching to broadcast journalism.

“What’s been most enjoyable at ABC 27 is running into people I worked with months or years ago for one story and seeing them again when speaking about a completely different topic.  It really goes to show how invested our community members are in making Tallahassee the best place it can be,” Bailey said.

“We are thrilled to add Karah’s experience and welcoming personality to our Sunrise team,” said WTXL General Manager Matt Brown.  “She brings a wealth of knowledge of the Big Bend and southern Georgia that I’m certain our audience will see in her coverage.”
