Newscasts

WUFT-TV broadcasts local newscasts staffed and produced by students in the University of Florida College of Journalism and Communications. WUFT-TV broadcasts two main newscasts, along with a variety of special reports and half-hour specials. "First Edition", currently a six-minute newscast, airs weekdays at noontime for 100 shows per year. "News 5" (the main newscast, formerly known as "WUFT News", "Report 5" and "Evening News") is a half-hour weekday newscast at 6:30pm which airs 200+ days per year.

WUFT rebranded in August 2010, calling itself "Florida's 5". The channel moved its evening newscasts from 5:30 pm to 6:30 pm.
