Nexstar Broadcasting's CBS affiliate/WANE-TV (Channel 15, Fort Wayne) restructures their Saturday morning newscast, dropping the 7AM hour. "NewsChannel 15's First News This Morning" now airs from 8am until 9am.

In the fall of 2013, Federated Media's N-T/WOWO (1190am, Fort Wayne), also heard on translator W298BJ (107.5fm, Fort Wayne) began simulcasting their Fort Wayne's Morning News (Charly Butcher-hosted) on a local TV network affiliate.

Engineers outfitted the WOWO studio and newsroom with multiple video cameras. When this simulcast began, it aired on then-NBC affiliate WISE-TV (Channel 33, Fort Wayne). Later, the simulcast moved to Quincy Media's MyTV subchannel/WPTA-TV (Channel 21.3, Fort Wayne). The broadcast recently changed from 2 hours (5am until 7am) to an hour and a half: 5:30am until 7:00am.

Adams Radio Group's AC/WWFW (103.9fm, Fort Wayne) flips to all holiday music. "Sunny 103.9" continues their AC format as an online webstream.

Sarkes Tarzian's AC/WAJI (95.1fm, Fort Wayne) flips to all holiday music. "Majic 95.1" continues their AC format as an online webstream.

That's all for this issue. Thank you for your continued support.
