  1. BTW, The station was ABC24 back when then WPTY became the new ABC affiliate on December 1, 1995. And since late '95, 'PTY was NewsWatch 24 (95-97), ABC24 News (Twice), and ABC24 Eyewitness News (IMO, they need to bring the EWN name back). The new logo and some changes are an important improvement for WATN to climb out of the ratings hole... maybe.
