Why did WFAA redesign their website?

The WFAA website was redesigned in order to better provide our readers with the information they want in a format that is natural and intuitive. The new website experience features a more user-friendly way to browse the news in an uncluttered environment. Additionally, the site features much more video. Our redesigned website further confirms our commitment to providing relevant information to our readers in a highly visual format.

Which browsers are most compatible with the website?

For the best experience, we recommend running the latest version of the following:

Why are some sections on the previous website not visible on the new version?

We have moved some sections around in our new design of the website to better align the structure.
