40/29 to Provide a LIVE. LOCAL. LATE BREAKING Newscast for The CW
Source: KHBS/KHOG Beginning tonight, August 20th and airing seven days a week, viewers will be able to watch 40/29 News on the Arkansas CW at 9:00 p.m.
Using the award-winning newsgathering
resources from its sister station 40/29 TV (the ABC affiliate in the
Fort Smith/Fayetteville TV market), the 9:00 p.m. newscast on The
Arkansas CW will
offer local viewers an earlier option for the LIVE. LOCAL. LATE BREAKING. coverage they have come to expect from 40/29 News.
40/29 News at 9 on the Arkansas CW will feature familiar faces,
including Angela Taylor, Drew Michaels, and sports with Mike Jacques.
On the weekends, Jay Plyburn and Brittany Bell will anchor the
coverage. As is always the case with 40/29 newscasts,
teams of field crews from across the entire region will cover the
important news of the day from Fort Smith, The River Valley and all of
Northwest Arkansas.
“We’re committed to giving viewers a comprehensive late news option at 9:00 p.m. on the Arkansas CW,”
said KHBS/KHOG-TV President and
General Manager, Brian Sather. “I know other stations have chosen to
deliver a different kind of experience at 9:00 p.m., but we plan to
offer a substantial,
fast-paced traditional 30 minute newscast filled with local news,
delivered by our award-winning team of journalists,” added Sather.
“I’m looking forward to offering our local viewers more options for the
LIVE. LOCAL. LATE BREAKING. coverage they’ve come to expect from
us,” said 40/29 News Anchor, Angela Taylor. “We appreciate our local
viewers and now they have a more convenient option to get what they need
before they go to bed…”
