Gray TV ABC affiliate WBAY-TV/2 (Green Bay) has added two new newscasts and updated its set.
As first noted by the Changing Newscasts blog, the half-hour newscasts air at 9 a.m. and 4:30 p.m. The 9 a.m. broadcast is the only local newscast in the timeslot, while the 4:30 show will compete with an established newscast on Nexstar CBS affiliate WFRV.
The 4:30 newscast will fit between existing newscasts at 4 and 5 p.m. The additions bring WBAY to six hours per weekday of local news.
