It was the first West Michigan station to use <a href="/wiki/Electronic_news_gathering" title="Electronic news gathering">electronic news gathering</a>, in 1975. Five years later, it was the first area station to air live news from outside its studios. In 1983, it introduced the area's first television <a href="/wiki/Helicopter" title="Helicopter">helicopter</a> to assist in coverage. WOOD-TV's weekday morning newscast premiered in 1984 and aired for a half-hour at 6:30. This was expanded to a two-hour format in 1995 along with the weekday noon and weekend 6 p.m. newscast expanding to an hour. As a result, <i><a href="/wiki/NBC_Nightly_News" title="NBC Nightly News">NBC Nightly News</a></i> is preempted on weekends. </p><p>After taking over WOTV's operations, WOOD-TV then began simulcasting some of its newscasts on that station as well as airing specially produced newscasts covering Battle Creek and Kalamazoo. That station had shuttered its separate news department in 1990; despite serving the market's second-largest city, Kalamazoo, it had long been plagued by weak viewership as its reach was limited to the southern portion of the market. Since then, WOTV has largely functioned as WOOD-TV's Kalamazoo/Battle Creek bureau. In 1992, WOOD-TV launched a separate news department for WOTV. However, despite having WOOD-TV's resources behind it, it made no impact in the ratings. LIN TV finally decided to shut down WOTV's news operation permanently in August 2003. Since then, the station has <a href="/wiki/Simulcast" title="Simulcast">simulcast</a> some of WOOD-TV's newscasts (currently its weekday morning, 6 p.m. and 11 p.m. newscasts), but this time without any separate opens or segments. </p><p>On October 21, 2007, WOOD-TV began offering a nightly prime time newscast at 10 p.m. on WXSP-CD, joining the longer-established 10 p.m. newscast on Fox affiliate WXMI (channel 17) and <a href="/wiki/The_CW" title="The CW">CW</a> affiliate WWMT-DT2. The entertainment and lifestyle magazine show <i>eightWest</i> premiered on October 5, 2009, and airs weekday mornings at 11 a.m. for an hour, as well as being streamed live on the station's website. Also on that date, WOOD-TV became the second station in southwestern Michigan to begin broadcasting its local newscasts in <a href="/wiki/16:9" class="mw-redirect" title="16:9">16:9</a> <a href="/wiki/Widescreen" title="Widescreen">widescreen</a> <a href="/wiki/Enhanced_definition" class="mw-redirect" title="Enhanced definition">enhanced definition</a>.

In 2017, the station made it a year-round studio when it partnered with the Grand Rapids Art Museum to launch the Media Arts Center. The noon newscast is anchored daily from the streetside studio. Also in 2017, WOOD-TV opened a streetside studio in downtown Kalamazoo overlooking Bronson Park. The station invites school groups to both studios during the school year for the "Storm Team 8 Weather Experience", an educational multi-media show hosted by Storm Team 8 meteorologists who teach kids about weather and science. </p><p>Since 2020, operations at this downtown studio have been paused, particularly due to the <a href="/wiki/COVID-19_pandemic_in_Michigan" title="COVID-19 pandemic in Michigan">COVID-19 pandemic</a>, as well as periods of general unrest downtown due to various protests. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Notable_former_on-air_staff">Notable former on-air staff</h3><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=WOOD-TV&action=edit&section=4" title="Edit section: Notable former on-air staff"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <ul><li><a href="/wiki/Carol_Duvall" title="Carol Duvall">Carol Duvall</a></li> <li><a href="/wiki/Alan_Gionet" title="Alan Gionet">Alan Gionet</a></li> <li><a href="/wiki/Steve_Kmetko" title="Steve Kmetko">Steve Kmetko</a></li> <li><a href="/wiki/Steve_Osunsami" title="Steve Osunsami">Steve Osunsami</a></li> <li><a href="/wiki/Janet_Shamlian" title="Janet Shamlian">Janet Shamlian</a></li> <li><a href="/wiki/John_Stehr" title="John Stehr">John Stehr</a></li> <li><a href="/wiki/Matt_Winer" title="Matt Winer">Matt Winer</a></li> <li><a href="/wiki/Ginger_Zee" title="Ginger Zee">Ginger Zee</a></li></ul> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Controversies">Controversies</h3><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=WOOD-TV&action=edit&section=5" title="Edit section: Controversies"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>In July 2022, WOOD-TV was one of two Michigan television stations to inadvertently publish test results related to the state's primary election.
