WSPD does have a news staff in station, but they are only reporters. WTVN in Columbus does their top and bottom hour newsbreaks.
 
WSPD News Staff...live and local

Not true. WSPD has a local news staff with two anchors and a reporter. The AM drive anchor is live 5:30 AM to 9AM. Columbus picks up the news for middays during Beck and Limbaugh, then they have a live news anchor again in PM drive from 3PM to 6 PM. They also are running ads for more newspeople.<P ID="edit"><FONT class="small">Edited by Rad10phile on 02/25/06 08:45 PM.</FONT></P>
