However, it eventually flourished, only to lose its licence at the end of 1992, after being outbid by GMTV .

These shows are not usually produced by

The expansion of news on Fox affiliates, along with advertising restrictions involving with the Children's Television Act , effectively ended the morning children's television market on broadcast television by the mid-2000s. Beginning in the early 2010s, stations began experimenting with 4:30   a.m. and even 4:00   a.m. newscasts in some major markets (and even gradually expanding into mid-size and some smaller markets), pushing local news further into what traditionally

The CW (and before that, its co-predecessor The WB ) carried The Daily Buzz for its The CW Plus (as well as its The WB 100+ Station Group ) from 2002 to 2014, in lieu of

2378-606: The latter program had also previously aired on WGN America until 2008). More traditional local newscasts began taking hold in morning timeslots (mainly on stations that maintain their own news departments) in the late 1980s and early 1990s. These programs began as half-hour or one-hour local newscasts that aired immediately before the national shows.
