Is the bay area has the longest local news time period in the country? Excluding Spectrum 1 news / News 12 or other regional cable news channel, and news repeats. I can watch Bay area local news (combination of KTVU, KRON, KPIX, KGO, and KNTV) form 4am-1pm and follow by 2pm-1135pm. I know Los Angeles their news goes from 4a-2pm, 3pm-730pm, and 8pm-11:35pm with breaks between 2-3pm and 7:30-8pm.
