WXXA, Albany starting 11pm newscast

FOX23, WXXA -Albany, NY will be starting a 11pm newscast Monday the 29th. Which I think is a great idea, their 10pm (Albany's only 30 minute 10pm newscast) is solid, so the 11pm should be good.

I hope it will work out for them, I'm assuming the amount of other fox stations with 11pm news is growing?!

True, the other Fox stations with 11pm news is growing, but that's not the only reason WXXA is starting a 11pm newscast. They want to compete with the big 3, i.e. WRGB, WTEN, and WNYT, for the 11pm newscast viewership. This is synonymous to what's going on with WTIC Fox 61, whose 11pm newscast started in September of last year.

Unfortunately they just cut back the morning new from 6-9am (they had nice promos to "the only Live-Local Choice from 7 to 9") to 6-8a,, 6-8am is very random don't you think!!
