WHNS, which brands on air as Fox Carolina, is airing a news promo that emphasizes its extended morning news block as being local focused.

The spot, which ends with the on-screen tagline “The Local Station” appearing prominently on screen, emphasizes the station’s local news, sports, weather and traffic offerings — especially after other local affiliates switch to national feeds at 7 a.m. local time.
