WNEP is expanding its news operation with the opening of the “Wyoming Valley Newsroom at 16 Public Square.”
The state of the art HD broadcast facility will be located in the Bicentennial Building at 16 Public Square, Wilkes-Barre, and will be Newswatch 16’s home base for coverage of the Wyoming Valley.
“WNEP is committed to covering the news from across our entire viewing area,” said President and General Manager Chuck Morgan. “We believe the addition of a permanent newsroom in Wilkes-Barre will enable us to deliver even better news coverage to this very important part of our market.”
“We’re really excited about the possibilities an additional newsroom like this creates,” said WNEP News Director, Carl Abraham. “And we’re looking forward to becoming a permanent part of the neighborhood.”
Newswatch 16 also staffs newsrooms in the Poconos and Central Pennsylvania.
WNEP plans to open the Wyoming Valley Newsroom at 16 Public Square in July.
