Late-night KNTV is good for catching up on Bay Area headlines after everything else is quiet. The stream has dropped once or twice past midnight, but it usually reconnects quickly.

Picture gets soft sometimes

The midday updates are handy when I need a quick Bay Area check-in without sitting through a full newscast.

Useful local coverage today

The morning anchors have a relaxed rhythm, though I sometimes wish the headlines moved a little faster.

Local updates come through clearly
Anthony Hill
The election panels are strongest when they challenge each other with facts instead of turning every issue into a shouting match. I would like a little more attention to local ballot measures once the national headlines take over.
Lucas Morales
The HD stream looks crisp on my TV, and the sound stays nicely synced without buffering, even during longer newscasts.

I like having a local newscast on in the background while I make dinner.

I tuned in for the evening weather update before heading out, and the commute details were just as useful as the forecast. Bay Area conditions can change fast.
