Live news at 10pm on WBEP

There is now a head to head battle for news watchers at 10pm. WBEP (CW 3) is now airing a live 10pm newscast to go up against long time 10pm news leader “Fox 66 News at 10.” The newscast comes from the WSEE side of the Lilly Broadcasting complex with Scott McDowell and Lisa Weisman handling the anchor duties. The 1/2 hour newscast leaves little time for sports before 10:30 which would be a great opportunity for the station to air a nightly 1/2 hour sports show at 10:30 using the “SportsBlitz” name. The move would also be a plus since Fox now has an hour long newscast. You can catch WBEP on various cable outlets, Dish Network or over the air at 12-2 or 35-2.
