Only WDAZ produces newscasts in Grand Forks - three on weekdays, two on Saturdays, and one on Sundays. KVLY, KBRR, and KXJB all carry some Grand Forks-related news. KVLY maintains an office in the city and carries a substantial amount of Grand Forks material on its news broadcasts. KXJC, a Grand Forks-based CBS affiliate, was introduced several years ago. However, low viewership and a lack of much local content resulted in the station quickly being discontinued.
