Washington, D.C. (May 1, 2008) -- WPIX-TV, the CW affiliate in New York City, is now airing local newscasts in High-Definition.

The station, which made the switch last week, is now broadcasting the CW11 News at Ten and CW11 Morning News programs in 1080i high-def.

The station says its new high-def studio includes new cameras and a new graphics system for weather and traffic.

“As the demand for HD content has increased among our audience, WPIX has continued to meet these needs. The addition of our HD newscasts is another important step in providing comprehensive high-efinition opportunities for our viewers” says WPIX Vice President and General Manager Betty Ellen Berlamino.

There are now more than 80 local stations broadcasting the news in high-def.
