Scripps Local Stations Now Airing Scripps News National-Focused Content

In a post on the Scripps News LinkedIn page, the group’s president, Kate O’Brian, announced today that Scripps local stations have begun airing national-focused content produced first for Scripps News.

“Today starts an expanded opportunity for Scripps News: the Scripps local stations have begun airing our live original content in their markets,” O’Brian wrote. “As of today, 25 stations across the country will air either an hour or a half hour of Scripps News and this is just the beginning. There will be more stations airing Scripps News in the fall.

“Our excellent content will be seen by many more people on their trusted local stations, in many cases adjacent to their own local news. We continue to expect the best of ourselves; quality breaking coverage, smart context, and beautiful storytelling across all our dayparts. This opportunity to show news audiences what we do is a vital step in becoming a widely known and trusted news source. I am excited by this development and further expansion.”

O’Brian also thanked the stations WMAR, KIVI, KRHD, WCPO, WEWS, KZTV, KTGF, WGBA, KTVH, KTNV, WSFL, WTMJ, WTVF, WTKR, KTSU, KSBY, WTXL, WFTS, KGUN, KJRH, KSAW, KXXV, WPTV and KIRO for airing the Scripps News content.
