3 reviews for Channel 39 - Cable 7 - KNSD
Watching their fire coverage the past three days, I give this channel five stars.
Non-sensational reporting (for the most part); their use of Thomas guide maps when regular maps would take too long to come up with; the twelve hour shifts the anchors are doing...and who are these anchors, anyway? they're so selfless, they don't seem to keep their names on the screen long enough for anyone to see. I have no idea who they are, but they've been very reassuring to listen to.
My highest praise is for having their Spanish-language presenter, Tania Luviano (heh, the only presenter whose name I know), give the highlights about once every other hour in Spanish. Given how many folks in the area don't speak English as their first language, I think it's a shame that the other stations haven't done something like this as well.
Yes, the Spanish speakers could tune in to some other channel to get their news, but it's such a nice touch for a regional affiliate to care enough about their demographic that they have her come on and tell folks what's what in a language they can understand.
Thumbs up to you, channel 7!
This station STILL does not have news in HD - one of the few local stations (besides KUSI) that doesn't.
This station STILL does not carry "Wheel of Fortune" and "Jeopardy" in HD even though such backwaters as Los Angeles have had them over a year now.
For a network owned & operated, this is sure a backwater station at times.
Come on KNSD - get with the times! (And lose the god-awful new website which actually tries to hide information!)

I must respectfully disagree with David M.
This station has one of the worst newscasts in San Diego.… Read more »
So me and my friend were done eating at Sushi Deli 2 and we were crossing the street to shop at the mall and my friend pointed out the guy in the car that went past us to the left(that one way street near Westin Hotel) in front of us before crossing the street was Vic Salazar!
Immediately I just yelled Hi Vic! with a cracky-just-ate-sushi-nonclear-throat-voice....at first nothing, then he looked to the side then did a head back turn out the window! I waved and he waved back! OMG! He actually waved! Wow! That was nice of him! So in conclusion, Vic is cooooool!
I actually prefer KFMB news(set, stories, people, sd images, weather graphics).
