Megan Shinn

Megan Shinn is proud to have joined KDKA as the morning weekend anchor and weekday reporter at the end of 2023. You'll catch her on-air before the sun rises and out in the community on the stories that make a difference.

Raised in Colorado, she's no stranger to cold weather. Also, Megan is proud to have deep Pittsburgh ties with a plethora of family in the area.

Megan's decade long career carried her from coast to coast. She worked in Eugene, Oregon, and Virginia Beach, Virginia. She recently relocated from Indianapolis, Indiana, to her final stop near family in Pittsburgh.

Before moving to Pittsburgh, Megan anchored the morning newscasts in Indianapolis, and launched a new evening show focused on in-depth, community-based stories. She covered everything from breaking news, to military homecomings, and the Indy 500. This has earned her an Emmy and an Edward R. Murrow Award.

Her passion for news took off in Southern California where she earned a BFA in Television Broadcast Journalism from Chapman University. During college, she interned at top markets including KNBC and KCBS/ KCAL in Los Angeles; she also worked for ESPN3. One of her favorite college experiences was having circumnavigated the globe on "Semester At Sea."

Megan is invested in the Pittsburgh community, and she loves cooking, hiking, and exploring her forever home with her husband, Mike.

As an avid runner, Megan ran the Marine Corps Marathon in 2019. Follow her on social media and you'll see her adopted shelter cats, Basil and Odin.
