Newscasts
When WJET began operating WFXP, it took over production of this station's nightly half hour prime time newscast (known as Fox 66 First at Ten). The broadcast had previously been produced by WICU through a news share agreement. On September 10, 2007, WJET began airing an hour-long weekday morning show at 8 on WFXP (called Fox 66 News in the Morning). This is the only local newscast in the area broadcasting in the time-slot. In June 2009, WSEE moved into WICU's studios which are currently unable to air two live newscasts at the same time because there is only one control center.
So that it would not compete with WICU, WSEE's weeknight broadcast at 11 was moved to 10 on CW affiliate WSEE-DT2. That show now competes with WJET's production on WFXP which had been the area's only prime time newscast. WICU and WSEE were supposed to merge their news departments together but this has not happened yet. There is, however, weekend evening newscasts simulcasted on both stations and sharing of resources.
