Adios in Austin

After 53 years in the business, longtime Austin Anchor Fred Cantú is calling it quits.

Cantú, who began his broadcasting career in 1972 at age 17, has spent 45 of those years in the Austin market. He joined KEYE in 2002 after previous stints at Fox 7 and KVUE.

"Being in this business is all I ever wanted to do, even as a child," Cantú said. "And I got to do it for 53 years, my entire working career."

Give Cantú credit, he’s signing off in March and not milking it all the way to the May book.
