Californians now have a powerful new tool in their fight for fair deals and informed buying decisions.
David Lazarus, known for his daily consumer reports on KTLA 5 News, has a new weekly program, “Consumer Confidential with David Lazarus,” streaming exclusively on the free KTLA+ app for Roku, Fire TV, Apple TV and Samsung Smart TVs.
This weekly program takes the consumer advocacy that Lazarus is known for to the next level, with a comprehensive look at the latest trends impacting U.S. consumers, in-depth analysis of unfair business practices, and insight into personal finances matters.
“Our streaming show provides a great way for viewers to catch up on some of the daily Consumer Confidential segments they may have missed,” Lazarus explained. “It’s also a chance to see more in-depth reports on a wide variety of topics.”

“I’m really proud of this. KTLA has the best consumer/financial coverage among local TV stations, and the streaming show serves as a showcase for the news and information we bring to viewers. And if we serve up a few laughs as well, that just ices the cake,” Lazarus said.
“Consumer Confidential with David Lazarus” streams on Saturdays from 2 p.m. to 3 p.m., and Sundays at 5 a.m. and 4:30 p.m. You can also watch segments and full episodes on demand on KTLA+.
