Beginning October 29th weekend newscasts will return to CHCH. The live 30-minute broadcasts will air at 6 & 11 pm, Saturdays and Sundays.

CHCH News Vice-President Mike Katrycz told staff “We’ve heard loudly from our viewers and advertisers that they want their weekend news back, and we’re delighted to now be able to inform and reflect the great communities we serve, seven days a week”.

“We are grateful for the viewer feedback, because it demonstrates the high expectations they have of us,” said Chris Fuoco, Vice President, Sales & Marketing, Channel Zero. “We listened to our viewers when they told us they wanted Morning Live to start an hour earlier at 6am, and we continue to listen to feedback to better serve our community every weekday – and soon every weekend too.”

CHCH is the news leader for the Hamilton, Halton and Niagara regions and has the highest rated local news programs in each of the morning, early evening and late evening timeslots. With the return of weekend news broadcasts CHCH will produce more than 24 hours of original local news programming every week.
