WMAL is proud to nominate its 6 pm newscast of April 5, 2016 for Best Newscast in the 2016 Chesapaeake Associated Press awards competition. 2016 will be remembered for its divisive political season, but even in the Nation’s Capital, local news is paramount to consumers, and WMAL is proud to serve on a busy day that includes the breakup of a large shoplifting ring at a local shopping mall, tax rate increases in teh region’s second largest jurisdiction, and the continuing search for a missing homeless girl.
