KPDX - Newscasts

Newscasts

For a while during its run as a Fox affiliate, KPDX ran a 10 p.m. newscast produced by CBS affiliate KOIN. The partnership with KOIN later ended, and in 2000, KPDX launched its own in-house news operation with a nightly 10 p.m. newscast. Upon the station's purchase by Meredith, KPDX's news operation was merged into KPTV's newsroom (although KPTV's operations were actually moved into KPDX's newer facility, located in Beaverton), and KPDX's existing 10 p.m. newscast was cancelled.

On September 8, 2008, KPDX began airing an hour-long 8 p.m. newscast on weeknights produced by KPTV; as such, KPTV is one of only a few Fox stations in the United States to produce a newscast for another station in the same market.
