Drawing from local broadcast stations’ unique brands and programming, STIRR City offers regionally relevant content authentic to the market, including live, local news on the STIRR City channel as well as the stations’ top-rated syndication hits. In Baltimore, STIRR City offers Judge Judy, Family Feud, Jeopardy and Wheel of Fortune on demand.

In Baltimore is Dying, the WBFF news team explores the city’s violent crime crisis and introduces viewers to the people on the front lines who are watching their neighbors, family members and children fall victim to the violence. In Your Voice, Your Future Town Hall: City in Crisis, FOX45 News provides a forum for Baltimore’s Fells Point residents to discuss the community’s safety problems and potential solutions.
