Newscasts
WUAB debuted the "10 O'Clock News" on January 4, 1988. It was the second attempt at a prime time newscast in Cleveland following WKBF (channel 61)'s effort in 1968. The original WUAB news team consisted of anchors Romona Robinson and Bob Hetherington, Frank Cariello, and Gib Shanley. After WJW-TV switched to Fox in 1994, WUAB's newscast gained a competitor as WJW had started its own 10 p.m. newscast. On February 6, 1995, WUAB began producing two daily newscasts to be aired on WOIO in addition to their own 10 p.m. newscast under the moniker Cleveland Television News. Although WOIO was the senior partner in the LMA, it had no news department before becoming a CBS station.
WOIO now manages WUAB's news division, and produces the nightly 10 p.m. newscast under the title of 19 Action News at 10 HD. The newscast on WUAB began broadcasting in high definition on October 21, 2007. On May 16, 2011, WUAB debuted a morning newscast airing weekdays from 7–8 a.m. as an extension of 19 Action News This Morning on WOIO. All totaled, WUAB airs 12 hours a week of local newscasts (two hours each Monday-Friday, and one hour each on Saturday and Sunday)
