News Department[]

WFQT is not a big competitor when it comes to news in Dixieville. They only have a weekday 10PM Newscast (5 hours or news weekly). That newscast was dropped three times: in 1999, 2004, and 2010 but in 2012, Independent 33 started it back up again. Along with the newscast, the station also provides hourly weather updates on the weekdays, usually near the top of the hour. On May 30, 2016, WFQT will add a 9:30pm newscast.
