Kate Cagle Career
Cagle went to McAllen Memorial High School and earned a bachelor’s degree in broadcast journalism and political science from the University of Southern California. With over ten years of experience reporting for print and television, Kate is an investigative journalist and courageous anchor who takes pride in her daily work covering Southern California for “Your Morning.” Kate goes to great lengths to provide her reporting with nuance, to share the experiences of the underprivileged, and to hold public authorities responsible.
Federal, state, and municipal investigations have resulted from her unrelenting reporting on the deputy gang epidemic within the Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department. She spent years cultivating sources both inside the department and throughout the local administration, which provided viewers with crucial background information and understanding throughout Sheriff Alex Villanueva’s reelection campaign. Since Sheriff Robert Luna took over, she has continued to cover the agency, providing crucial background for the systemic problems of accountability and transparency while spotlighting his historic appointment of Undersheriff April Tardy.
Kate is more knowledgeable and skilled than the police. Additionally, she has covered scandals in Los Angeles City Hall with a sharp eye. Senator Charles Grassley’s staff evaluation referenced her interview with Mayor Eric Garcetti regarding sexual harassment charges involving a top aide, finding that Garcetti “likely knew, or should have known” about the unlawful activities. A few months later, Kate was one of the first journalists to make public racist comments that had been leaked by Nury Martinez, the president of the City Council, and others. This led to several resignations. She persistently tracked the scandal’s effects in City Hall months later.
Before Kate joined Spectrum News 1 in October 2018, she spent three years as a senior reporter at Santa Monica Daily Press, in Santa Monica, California. She began her career at NBC News in 2009, assisting NBC Nightly News correspondents and producers with live shots and taped packages, including shoots at Camp Pendleton, Neverland Ranch, and The Staples Center. From there she got a job as an executive producer at Annenberg TV News. Kate then served as a morning reporter for most of my time at KPSP, a CBS affiliate station in Palm Springs. There, she led the station’s coverage of the largest gang crackdown in Riverside County history, technological changes at the Marine Corps base in Twentynine Palms, and visits by Condoleezza Rice and Laura Bush. She also field-anchored coverage of former First Lady Betty Ford’s funeral.
After KPSP was purchased by News-Press Gazette, Kate joined KESQ in Palm Springs and briefly worked there as a reporter and weekend anchor. As a reporter for the No. 1 morning show on KPTV Fox 12, in Portland, Oregon Area, Kate did nine live shots during the 4.5-hour newscast. There, she covered high-profile stories such as the Reynolds High School shooting and the Kyron Horman missing child case.
