Molly Hughes, former CBS4 anchor, has been named director of the soon to be expanded Denver Post TV. The appointment is being made at a time when “video has become a major platform for us, both in reader engagement and revenue,” Denver Post Editor Greg Moore announced Monday.

The goal for the Post, Moore said, is to “double our video production.” The plan is to relaunch DPTV “into a major vehicle for content delivery from all departments.”

Hughes will face one of the toughest challenge in journalism: “helping newspaper folks improve their on-air presence.” She joins the staff in late September, and will eventually anchor a number of daily news shows, help build weekly shows with input from every department and work with reporters and editors on breaking news.

Hughes, a successful co-anchor with Jim Benemann on KCNC, left the station in 2007, a victim of housecleaning by then incoming general manager Walt DeHaven. She joined Colman & Company as a media coach.
