By Phillip Swann
 
Washington, D.C. (April 20, 2007) -- WSOC-TV, the ABC affiliate in Charlotte, North Carolina, will begin broadcasting the local news in High-Definition on Sunday.

The station says at its web site that it will be the first in Charlotte to do so.

"
We went high-def because our viewers deserve the most clear, most visually stunning, most accurate views of local news and weather available," the station stated.

Kett Cosmetics, which specializes in providing high-def makeup for TV broadcasts, has provided consultation for the station's HD switch.
