WOWK+ is the Tri-State newsroom Roku owners actually use.
Nexstar's CBS affiliate for Huntington and Charleston ports its newscasts and weather radar to Roku with the same template the chain ships everywhere — which is fine, until the storm cell crosses the Big Sandy.

WCBD News 2 turns the Charleston NBC affiliate into a competent Roku habit.
Nexstar's Lowcountry station ships the standard local-news Roku template — live stream, on-demand clips, weather radar — and the local reporting carries it further than the channel does.

WSYR+ brings Syracuse's NewsChannel 9 to the Samsung TV input list.
Nexstar's Tizen build for the central New York ABC affiliate delivers the 6 and 11 o'clock newscasts, weather, and a thin lineup of replay segments to a free 24/7 channel on the home screen.

WCBD+ on Samsung Tizen is the Charleston NBC affiliate's FAST-channel pitch.
Nexstar's Lowcountry station ships a Tizen build that leans on the 24/7 News2+ FAST channel more than the Roku sibling does, with Bixby voice search wired in and the same shallow on-demand library underneath.

CBS 42+ puts Birmingham's tornado coverage on the right screen.
Nexstar's free Roku channel for WIAT 42 carries the central Alabama CBS newscasts, the Storm Team weather block, and live cut-ins during severe weather. In tornado country, that's not a feature — it's the entire reason to install it.
