WVU News is an Emmy award-winning newscast produced by television journalism students in the West Virginia University Reed School of Media and Communications.
As part of the university’s capstone journalism course, students operate in a real newsroom environment, serving as reporters, anchors, producers, videographers, and digital content creators to provide in-depth, professional-quality reporting on issues impacting the state and beyond.
The show tackles pressing local, state, and national stories, offering investigative reporting, political coverage and human-interest features. Students gain hands-on experience in every aspect of broadcast journalism — story selection, interviewing, shooting, editing, writing, producing, and social media promotion. The competitive process to have a story featured on WVU News pushes students to excel, producing content that meets and exceeds the standards of professional television newsrooms.
Episodes are produced biweekly. Viewers can watch on West Virginia Public Broadcasting, KDKA-TV in Pittsburgh and the City of Morgantown’s Public Access Channel, as well as stream on HD Media's website. You can also watch WVU News on on-campus television stations, online via the WVU News website, and our College's YouTube channel.
