PENSACOLA, Fla. — WEAR News is expanding its morning news footprint.

Beginning Monday, September 29, “WEAR News The Morning Current” will debut on WFGX from 7 a.m. to 8 a.m.

The Morning Current is a lively look at current news events impacting Northwest Florida.

It is a daily interactive newscast with Laura Hussey and Jared Willetts delivering “while you slept” news in a bold, new format.

Our emphasis will be on viewer interaction, taking our community’s temperature on topics making headlines.

The Current will not be a rehash of “yesterday” news. Instead, it will feature fresh headlines delivered in a spontaneous format.

It will take you to where news is happening now.

The Current will feature reporter debriefs, fact checks, news you can use items and most importantly it will encourage viewer engagement.

This one hour newscast will have regular traffic and Brooke Richardson’s weather forecasts as we prepare our viewers for their day.

We hope you will join us each morning for “WEAR News The Morning Current” on WFGX.
