Janene Drafs, VP and general manager of KTLA Los Angeles, is the 2024 Multichannel News Woman of Influence, to be honored at the Wonder Women of Los Angeles celebration. The first female GM in KTLA history when she took over in 2020, Drafs oversees an extraordinary station. Owned by Nexstar Media Group, KTLA airs a whopping 112 hours a week of local programming. Weekday news goes 4 a.m. to 2 p.m. After a daily talk show, it’s local news until 7 p.m., and again after The CW primetime.
"It’s especially rewarding to be recognized among such talented and respected women in media," Drafs said.
