Well, it's happening. Cincinnati's FOX 19 (WXIX) is expanding its news once again. Starting September 13th, FOX 19 is adding another hour of news with an addition of a 3PM newscast. FOX 19 News Now at 3pm will be anchored by Chris Riva, Amber Jayanth, and Meteorologist Ashley Smith. And that's only the beginning, FOX 19's Saturday morning newscast will also begin an hour earlier starting this fall, and it will air from 7:00-10am rather than 8:00-10am. With is move, WXIX will provide 68.5 hours a week of live local news, more than any other station in the market. https://www.wvxu.org/post/wxix-tv-expanding-local-news-fill-judge-judy-3-pm-slot-fall#stream/0

It really makes me real sad that local broadcasters taken their own lives whether they suffering from depression, stress, or thoughts of suicide. We lost many of our favorite local personalities due to suicide and I'm not going to name name's out of respect to the deceased. I said it before and I'm going to say again, If you know someone you love (Family and/or Friends) who's suffering from depression and have thoughts of suicide, please call National Suicide Prevention Lifeline at 1-800-273-8255. They're here to help.

Could we see Tegna stations tweaking their graphics soon?
