5/5Unknown
I Have been watching Wvva in the Almost 20 years I have been here. Very upfront and forward with each and every story you cover. But i do know WVVA news has definitely had many Anchors and co- anchors Sports caster come and go it’s hard to keep up with. And weather Announcers Brandon Lawson is leaving this Wednesday. I do wish the young man the very Best. Sometimes i wonder how the station stays in Business because so many had left. Matthew Schwartz was good. He more or less had to leave before his contract was even up. Guess viewers got to get used to the new faces. Hopefully Joshua Bolden your not going anywhere.🙏😉❤️😀

I enjoy seeing what goes on in my hometown of Bluefield Va. I live in Moundsville WV now and it’s great to be able to stay connected to what going on back home. Thanks for letting me be able to do this.

I that the news and weather is very serious thing and it’s important to everybody I just do not understand why and or how nfl football is more important than your viewers We look forward to the news and many of us stay up at night before bedtime or watch it in bed before going to sleep When the nfl football players will not stand for the National Anthem and WVVA airs them instead of bringing the viewers the news it makes me wonder which side y’all represent and honor I’ve run my mouth enough Y’all just remember why we live free in the land we call home We’ve been blessed to live in the greatest nations Please honor the Nation , not an over paid athlete that disrespects the Nation
