The always busy Jason DeRusha just got busier. He'll bring both "Good Question" and his anchoring skills to the 10 p.m. WCCO newscast starting this Sunday. He'll be joined by Liz Collin, meteorologist Lauren Casey and sportscaster Mark Rosen. DeRusha was in the chair last week, but the announcement became official Thursday.

WCCO will also launch a new Saturday 8 a.m. broadcast starting Sept. 10. Jamie Yuccas and new weatherman Mark Brickman will helm the show with live reports from Rachel Slavik. The Saturday show will include a regular feature in which Frank Vascellaro and his mom Rosalie will share family recipes.
