Every newscast has a man and a woman as the main anchors. Almost all of them have a man in the weather news section except XETV channel 5, they have a woman. Of all the weather sections in the local news channels the most entertaining one is on KUSI 9. There's this old guy named John Coleman that starts off by saying "KKKKKKKUSI" in a very funny way, and then he starts walking fast in front of the camera going across the green screen from one side to the other. Then if there's going to be good weather in the forecast, the James Brown song "i feel good" comes out in the background and if there's going to be bad weather the Daniel Powder song "bad day" is played instead. KUSI is one the few that start at 10 and end at 11:35. It also has this section called "Turko Files" in were a reporter named Michael Turko investigates local problems that local people send him and helps them get to the bottom of it. He accomplishes great things in that sometimes the city fixes the problem or pays for it.
KGTV 10, XETV 5, and KUSI 9 start at 10. KNSD 7 and KFMB 8 both start at 11 which is very convenient with me because I might be busy working on something or watching a TV show that starts at 10 and its one hour long. Out of those 2 I prefer KNSD because I'll be watching the Jay Leno show and just leave it there and then continue to see the Tonight Show. Plus I prefer seeing the news with Marty Levin because ever since I remember he has always been there and my dad met him once while he was doing a news report.
All of the local newscasts for sports have men. They all of course talk about the local teams like the chargers and the padres. Only KNSD 7 talks about soccer, the rest don't. They were the only ones who talked about the local indoor soccer team The San Diego Soccers and of the U.S. soccer team.
XETV 5' s slogan is that they are the station for balanced news and it is kind of true because they will tell you to go online and post your opinion. Then during the program they will show the post's of 2 different points of views from people that are watching the news.
