Newscasts

In 2000, NBC affiliate WCNC-TV entered into a news share agreement with WMYT-TV to produce a half-hour 10 p.m. newscast for the station; the program was cancelled in 2002, due to low ratings.

On April 9, 2012, WMYT-TV began broadcasting a half-hour 10 p.m. newscast produced by CBS affiliate WBTV. This program originally ran on sister station WJZY from September 2003 to April 8, 2012 (with a simulcast on both stations from April 9 to 15, 2012), although low ratings for the newscast on that station – which placed a distant third in that timeslot behind the WSOC-produced primetime newscast on WAXN-TV and WCCB's in-house 10 p.m. newscast – prompted its move to WMYT, citing a more suitable audience on channel 55. With the switch, the program was renamed slightly from WBTV News at 10 on CW46 to WBTV News at 10 on MyTV12. As the sale to Fox Television Stations is now completed, the future of the 10 p.m. newscast is undetermined.
