Telemundo to launch local newscasts in Boston

WNEU Telemundo Boston today announced it’s launching the station’s first-ever live local newscasts later this summer.

The Telemundo O&O will be hiring an anchor, meteorologist, reporter and producer to staff two live, half-hour weekday newscasts at 6 and 11 pm.

The Telemundo news operation, which will debut a new state-of-the-art newsroom and news set, will be co-located with the New England Cable Network (NECN), a 24-hour regional news network.

Parent company NCBU will be leveraging NECN’s management and resources to launch and operate the Spanish-language newscasts.

The new employees will be part of NBCUniversal and will be based in Newton, Massachusetts, where NECN is located.
