News Operation
KHSL and KNVN currently share a single news operation; for information, see KHSL-TV#Action News.
KCPM aired its own newscasts for a time after going on the air. However, its ratings were so weak that it was forced to shutter its own news department and simulcast the newscasts from KCRA-TV in Sacramento. After Grapevine sold the station, KNVN relaunched its own news department, this time targeted toward younger viewers. However, this attempt at local news failed to make much of an impact. FInally, the news departments of both stations formally merged into a single news department in February 2000.
Since then both KHSL and KNVN have been financially troubled. They not only have to compete with KRCR, but also Sacramento's KCRA and KOVR, both of which are available on Comcast Cable.

Famous quotes containing the words news and/or operation:
“[In response to this question from an interviewer: “U. S. News and World Report described you this way: ‘She’s intolerant, preachy, judgmental and overbearing. She’s bright, articulate, passionate and kind.’ Is that an accurate description?”:]
It’s ... pretty good [ellipsis in original].”
—Joycelyn Elders (b. 1933)
“An absolute can only be given in an intuition, while all the rest has to do with analysis. We call intuition here the sympathy by which one is transported into the interior of an object in order to coincide with what there is unique and consequently inexpressible in it. Analysis, on the contrary, is the operation which reduces the object to elements already known.”
—Henri Bergson (1859–1941)
