“Stephanie has been part of the KSAT family for more than ten years and seeing her growth over that time as a reporter and anchor has been impressive,” said KSAT12′s Vice President and General Manager Phil Lane. “As a San Antonio native, she brings an understanding of this community and its residents to the anchor desk, with a genuine warmth that is perfect for a morning audience who’s looking to our team to start their day off right. We look forward to her contributions to the morning conversation.”
“Good Morning San Antonio” airs Monday through Friday from 4:30 a.m. to 7 a.m. “GMSA@9″ airs from 9 a.m. to 10 a.m.

Our morning teams are vital to our continued success.”
As a result of the move, Sarah Acosta will be joining Max Massey and Meteorologist Sarah Spivey on “GMSA Weekends”.
