WRTV 6 News at 7pm - Bump-out Open - 3/31/2026 (New Newscast Debut)

This channel is a proud official sponsor partner with one of the largest community media broadcasting industry/enthusiast related servers called Broadcast Plaza: https://discord.com/invite/zYwZPAgFDN Brief open snippet of the all new WRTV 6 News at 7 p.m. newscast, recorded on Tuesday, March 31, 2026. WRTV 6 is the ABC affiliate and the now owned Circle City Broadcasting owned TV station (previously WRTV was owned by the E.W. Scripps Company) serving the Indianapolis, IN area. Today on March 31, 2026 remarked a historical day when the deal would be closed of where WRTV got acquired by Circle City Broadcasting at over $83 million. With that said, WRTV now is a duopoly with the CW affiliate WISH-TV in Indianapolis, which would create a deal for both programming and news to be shared with those two stations in one now. This is the first newscast of where the change would go in place, starting with this new 7 p.m. newscast being produced out of WISH-TV's studios. Unfortunately, due to this happening, this has led to the result of the original Scripps WRTV News team being disbanded completely. The folks over at the original WRTV newsroom of the Scripps side was let go unexpectedly by this major change.

More details will eventually follow in the coming days, so this is what can be done with for now. Graphics are now the same with what WISH-TV uses, which was a syndicated graphics package from Renderon but recycled out of what WJAX/WFOX used to use as their graphics package. Music used is the "In-Sink V.5" news music package composed by 615 Music/WCPM. Voiceover artist heard in the open is Erik Tobias. Also, the brand was slightly changed to now include a new logo for WRTV which matches similarly to what WISH-TV has, and it seems like the brand is now referred to as WRTV 6 News. •NEWSCAST INFO: Station: WRTV 6 News Market: Indianapolis, IN Graphics: Custom Renderon Graphics Package (but recycled from what WJAX/WFOX had) Music: "In Sink V.5" - 615 Music/WCPM VO: Erik Tobias Recording Date: Tuesday, March 31, 2026 (3/31/2026) Media Operator: Circle City Broadcasting *If you are the copyright holder, and have any problem of your presented content being featured onto the channel and would like to request a takedown, please let me know by contacting me via my email address in the about section of my channel (not YouTube), and I will personally remove the video myself.* In order to keep a courteous and civil environment onto the channel, all of the channel's comment threads are actively moderated.
