Sinclair to Produce Sunday National News Program for its Stations

Sinclair has announced it will start producing a Sunday morning national news program for its stations nationwide, which includes KATV/Channel 7/Little Rock.  In a press release Sinclair says former CBS News correspondent Sharyl Attkisson will join the company in June and host the 30 minute weekly program.  

"We are excited to have Sharyl on board as we launch this group-wide news program," said Scott Livingston Vice President of News for Sinclair Television Group.  "Our goal is to provide the context and perspective on major issues impacting our viewers.  Sharyl has a proven track record of exposing the truth behind stories that other news organizations shy away from. I admire Sharyl's determination and passion to seek the truth.  Her unwavering commitment to exposing government waste, abuse and impropriety will be the foundation of our news program."

The program will begin in the fall.
