Josh Gorbutt

For nearly two decades, I've had the opportunity to be part of the incredible team at KBTX. I'm proud to lead a newsroom that's been consistently honored as among the best in the state of Texas, and that's deeply committed to the community we serve.

Each day at KBTX offers a new adventure and the chance to work with an amazing team to tell the stories of the Brazos Valley. The most satisfying part of my job, however, is when it allows me to give back to the community, working with charities like the Community Foundation of the Brazos Valley, Scotty’s House, Books and a Blanket, and the American Cancer Society, as well as the Chamber of Commerce's Leadership Brazos program.

I joined the KBTX team in 2008 as a newscast director and commercial producer, and I've been fortunate to work on many sides of our business.

I'm a proud Sam Houston State Bearkat and currently live in College Station with my wife, Breanne, our two children, and an aging dachshund that thinks he's much more imposing than his size suggests. Outside of work, I enjoy traveling, classic films, and spending time with friends and family.
