I believe KTSF is one of the last television stations in the United States to produce their own newscast in a language other than English or Spanish. Given San Francisco's large Asian population, it makes sense that this station can still survive with their Chinese language newscasts. The station has competition from Sky Link TV, which airs on a subchannel of KRON. From what I've seen of that newscast, it's definitely of much lower quality.
KTSF started their news department in 1989, being the first station in the United States to offer news in Chinese. The station currently airs 17.5 hours of news per week and offers newscasts in Cantonese and Mandarin. For the newscast in Mandarin, please see the card above. On weekdays, the station airs 2 hours of news in Cantonese from 7-9 PM and one hour of news in Mandarin from 10-11 PM. On Saturdays, the station airs a weekly round up of news from Hong Kong at 5:30 PM, and a half hour of news at 7 (Cantonese) and 10 (Mandarin). On Sundays, the station only airs the news at 7 and 10. The station also formerly aired a morning newscast in Cantonese up until its cancellation in 2020. For local news, the station airs a mix of their own reporting and stories taken from KPIX and translated into Chinese.
This newscast is anchored by Nam Kwok. The station uses a generic sounding piece of music known simply as "KTSF 2008 News Theme" on NMSA. I believe the graphics come from a pre-rendered package.
