Programming
Syndicated programming on WALA includes: Wheel of Fortune, Jeopardy!, The Doctors, and Dr. Phil. Outside of network programming, the station offers a news-intensive general entertainment format. As a Fox affiliate, WALA has the "rare" distinction of broadcasting some of the strongest syndicated programming from CBS Television Distribution which the big three affiliates in other markets would normally air.
WALA also broadcasts a local program called Studio Ten, featuring entertainment and local segments, usually paid for by the guests who appear on the show. The show is hosted by former sports anchor Joe Emer, former reporter Cherish Lombard, and features weather forecasts and tech information from morning meteorologist Michael White as well as consumer news and information from reporter Derica Williams. Studio Ten airs weekday mornings at 8am on WALA and is re-broadcast on sister station WFNA weekdays at noon.

Famous quotes containing the word programming:
“If there is a price to pay for the privilege of spending the early years of child rearing in the driver’s seat, it is our reluctance, our inability, to tolerate being demoted to the backseat. Spurred by our success in programming our children during the preschool years, we may find it difficult to forgo in later states the level of control that once afforded us so much satisfaction.”
—Melinda M. Marshall (20th century)
