Northeast PA station sporting new set

Friday, July 11th, 2008

We’re a bit late on this, but Wilkes-Barre/Scranton, Pa.’s NBC affiliate WBRE-TV debuted a new set June 9 to coincide with a new anchor lineup. The station also reverted back to using the “Eyewitness News” brand.

The new set features bright graphics and vertical plasma screens and quite flashy for the market it’s in.

A video tour from the first newscast is after the jump.
