Newscasts
After sister station KLJB launched a thirty minute prime time newscast produced by the Independent News Network (INN) on December 31, 1999, KGCW began repeating the show (known as Fox 18 Nine O'Clock News) on Tuesday through Saturday mornings at 5. On August 6, 2010, it was made public KLJB terminated its long standing partnership with INN and entered into a news share agreement with ABC affiliate WQAD-TV (owned by Local TV). On September 6, that station began producing a nightly half-hour prime time show on KLJB still known by the same name. KGCW then began repeating the previous night's newscast Monday through Friday mornings at 5. Production of Fox 18 Nine O'Clock News changed once more on December 31, 2012 when it was taken over through a new outsourcing arrangement by NBC affiliate KWQC-TV (owned by Young Broadcasting). There is now a separate anchor team featured solely on KLJB but the personalities can fill-in on KWQC when needed. The nightly broadcast at 9 currently originates from the NBC outlet's facility on Brady Street/U.S. 61 (within the Palmer College of Chiropractic campus) in downtown Davenport. KGCW moved the repeat of KLJB's show to the next morning at 1.
