Interactive. Informative. Social.

Breaking news. Weather. Sports. Unique content. Throughout the day, WKYT uses social media to connect with viewers in new ways.

Reporters and anchors on the scene of breaking news give instant accounts of what’s happening.

At least twice each day using Facebook Live, the WKYT First Alert Weather Team discusses the forecast and directly answers questions from viewers.

Each week, the WKYT sports team hosts “Countdown to Game Time” giving viewers insight into the next big game and the story beyond the sports headlines.

WKYT brought viewers a more in-depth look at stories with interactive charts and graphics to help readers better understand a story.
