Joseph Holloway has joined Tegna's WOI and KCWI in Des Moines, Iowa, as anchor and executive producer of Good Morning Iowa.

Holloway had been an anchor/reporter at WCNC, Raleigh, N.C.

“We’re excited to have Joseph join our team,” says Local 5 news director Perry Pace. “With his extensive experience, he’s the perfect fit as both an anchor and a leader for Good Morning Iowa. I’m confident that his calm, thoughtful, and energetic style will inspire our team and connect with our viewers.”

Before WCNC, Holloway was anchor/reporter at KOTV, in Tulsa, Oklahoma, and a reporter and fill-in anchor at KNWA in Fayetteville, Arkansas.

A sports fan, Holloway has also worked freelance in sports journalism for ESPN, CBS, and Cox Sports Television.

“People have a right to know what’s going on in their neighborhoods,“ Holloway said. ”I’m passionate about making sure they know the whole story so they can make their own decisions.”
