Heartland News at 9 now on KFVS-TOO

CAPE GIRARDEAU, Mo. (KFVS) - Heartland News at 9 is now showing seven nights a week on KFVS-TOO.

KFVS-TOO is the Heartland’s CW Network affiliate and is available over the air on digital channel 12.2, along with channel 9 on both Dish and Direct satellite services, channel 713 and 24 on Spectrum, channel 2 on Mediacom, and on other cable systems in the viewing area.

The newscast also streams live on KFVS digital platforms and Heartland News app. Viewers can go to KFVS12.com/too for more information.

Heartland News at Nine on KFVS-TOO is the only hour-long 9 p.m. locally produced newscast anchored by award winning journalist Jeff Cunningham.

Heartland News at 9 also includes local weather coverage from the KFVS12 First Alert Weather Team, and local sports reporting from Todd Richards and Jess Todd. The newscast airs seven nights per week.

KFVS News Director Roger Seay notes this is another step forward for Heartland News. Previously, the station launched The Breakfast Show TOO, an hour-long local newscast that airs weekday mornings at 7:00 on KFVS-TOO, immediately following The Breakfast Show on KFVS12.

“It’s an exciting time for all of us in the Heartland News Department,” Seay said. “Serving our viewers is our mission and there is a lot of energy and momentum to keep providing the best local news and weather coverage available.”

With the move, KFVS will produce nearly 45 hours of local news each week airing on KFVS12, KFVS-TOO, and on social and digital platforms.
