NBC-owned WNBC New York will add a 7 p.m. daily local newscast to its lineup starting this Monday, June 7. The 30-minute presentation will include breaking news, weather forecasts and investigative reporting.

WNBC said it will be the only regularly scheduled 7 p.m. local newscast offered over-the-air in the Tri-State. With the addition of the new broadcast, WNBC will now deliver more than 42 hours of live, local, over-the-air news to viewers each week.

“While so many of our schedules have changed, the Tri-State’s interest in local news has only grown stronger. Our new 7 p.m. local newscast is at a convenient time for our viewers and led by the names they know and the journalism they trust,” said Amy Morris, WNBC vice president of news.
