That newscast ended in late 2022 if I remember correctly.

You're right and the WGTA schedule hasn't been updated since.

The WGTA one is still on the station's schedule, unless someone else is producing it now.

@Weeters I did reach out to WGTA via Facebook and they informed me that their association ended with Newsnet in 2023. They stated "No, we don't air the news at nine anymore. It was produced by Newsnet but the partnership ended a year ago."

 

They just need to get Titan to update their listings. 

 

I knew WPGA ended the agreement when Gray took over and replaced it with a newscast from WANF.

From my recollection, when Coastal bought out Waypoint to include the NewsHub, they transitioned the Alaska/Wyoming cluster in a hurry.
