Randy Ingram, VP-GM of Circle City Broadcasting’s CW affiliate WISH Indianapolis (DMA 25) announced today that the station has begun a nationwide search to hire what he called “the state’s first-ever television reporter dedicated exclusively to covering multicultural issues within the Indiana community.”
“Our new reporter will share previously untold stories of the many distinct cultures and ethnic groups who make up our ever-growing, diverse community,” said Ingram. “This dedicated focus to multicultural reporting will give a voice to the communities, traditions, and issues currently not being covered by other Indiana television stations.”
Locally owned and operated, WISH produces 75 hours of news and original programming per week. The station said this new multicultural reporter “is part of an unprecedented news coverage expansion initiative being rolled out over the next several months by the station’s new local ownership. WISH was recently sold by Nexstar as part of its purchase of Tribune media to Circle City Broadcasting, owned by Indianapolis native DuJuan McCoy.
