The KTLA Morning News is a morning television newscast airing on CW affiliate KTLA (channel 5) in Los Angeles, California. The program is broadcast weekday mornings from 4 a.m-10 a.m. The 4 a.m.-7 a.m. portion is a general news/traffic/weather format; the 7-10 a.m. portion also features news, traffic and weather, but emphasizes entertainment and other light-hearted stories. Weekend editions of the program also air on Saturday mornings from 6-7 a.m. and Sunday mornings from 6-9 a.m.
The 7-10 a.m. portion of the program was simulcast on its San Diego sister station KSWB-TV (channel 69, owned by KTLA's parent company Tribune Broadcasting) from March 7, 2005 to July 31, 2008 (under the name The WB Morning Show, and then to The CW Morning Show upon becoming a CW affiliate); KSWB later relaunched an in-house news department on August 1, 2008, after switching its affiliation from The CW to Fox and debuted its own locally-produced morning newscast on the date of the affiliation switch.

Famous quotes containing the words morning and/or news:
“In Homer and Chaucer there is more of the innocence and serenity of youth than in the more modern and moral poets. The Iliad is not Sabbath but morning reading, and men cling to this old song, because they still have moments of unbaptized and uncommitted life, which give them an appetite for more.”
—Henry David Thoreau (18171862)
“Newsmen believe that news is a tacitly acknowledged fourth branch of the federal system. This is why most news about government sounds as if it were federally mandatedserious, bulky and blandly worthwhile, like a high-fiber diet set in type.”
—P.J. (Patrick Jake)
