In July 1953, Channel 8 News NOW, became the first television station in the state of Nevada. Over the years, the owners and employees of Channel 8 News NOW have maintained their commitment to viewers. We continually are discovering ways to add firsts offering viewers the best coverage possible.

• First to launch a newscast in Las Vegas
• First weekend newscast
• First to provide a local news website
• First to broadcast in high definition

Today, Channel 8 News NOW is still leading the way. We not only deliver local news through our traditional newscasts, we offer more ways of receiving our local news than any other news gathering organization in Southern Nevada. This reflects our dedication to serving our community with integrity NOW and for years to come.

Launched in 1994 as klastv.com, we were one of the first local television station websites in the country. Today, 8NewsNOW.com remains the leader with more stories and visitors than any other television station website in this market.

You may also catch Channel 8 News NOW updates on Headline News, Channel 22. These local news inserts are produced by our dedicated news team and feature the top local stories.
