FOX 31 & Colorado's Own Channel 2 have launched new newscasts.

After years of talking about it (FOX Television Stations was talking about doing this as early as 2005), FOX31 has launched weekend morning newscasts beginning today.  FOX31 Morning news @ 6AM & FOX31 Morning news @ 7AM.  

KWGN also launched weekend morning newscasts today.  Colorado's Own Channel 2 News @ 8AM & Colorado's Own Channel 2 News @ 9AM.  

This is the first time I can recall KWGN having weekend morning newscasts since the early 2000s or so.
