Myron Falwell 3894 Posted February 16 Share Posted February 16 4 hours ago, FiveNews said: Dang! AM news not until 5:30? I know they are the new shop in town, but 5:30am start time is very 1999. It’s being built out incrementally; likely that you’ll see the start time pushed further in the coming weeks to 5am and 4:30am. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CircleWXYZ 89 Posted February 16 Share Posted February 16 Talked to one of the main anchors yesterday and he said 6 am would start today. However, there wouldn’t be a full morning newscast for a few weeks. More than likely, weekends will debut first, then the 4:30 am and 5 am newscasts. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CircleWXYZ 89 Posted March 6 Share Posted March 6 Locally, Sandra Ali made her debut today. Didn’t air until 6 am and second hour aired at 7 on the app. Execution was rough the first hour but was way better in the second. Morning newscasts are fairly new so that’s to be expected. Midday and evenings flow way better. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’d seem weird to just launch a 6:00 p.m. newscast (that will be preempted by NCAA basketball tournament coverage on Sunday the 26th) and add the 11:00 later (especially since that’s not how it launched the weeknight editions of both broadcasts), so either the continued listing of syndicated SEAL Team reruns (Saturday) and Joel Osteen’s weekly ministry program (Sunday) in the weekend 11:00 slot is a misprint or WWJ somehow chose to stagger the weekend evening newscast launches.

They are still hiring for weekends. That’s why. 11pm will be in April, more than likely. From what I’ve been told, they wanted to slow down on adding new newscasts to give Detroiters a chance to know the new anchors and reporters. Also heard the ratings so far, are a lot better than expected. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On another site the set was a topic of discussion. Have they talked about expanding the set. The topics have been how small it's etc. The station has the space because it inside WKBD studios from their time from then FOX/UPN. Just want to know what discussion have been had. Their newscast seems great and slow pacing. Less crime stories, so overall it does seem a well put together newscast. WWJ news certainly & hopefully nothing like WOIO or WGCL/WANF. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CircleWXYZ 89 Posted yesterday at 01:44 PM Share Posted yesterday at 01:44 PM (edited) The station website shows the 9 am newscast as debuting on Monday, April 3rd. The Saturday 6 pm listing for this past Saturday was a mistake, as it was never mentioned by the station.
