About us
WESH 2 has been covering the news and telling the stories of Central Florida for almost 70 years. Before the first guests were welcomed at Disney World and NASA figured out how to launch a man into space from Cape Canaveral, WESH 2 went on the air. In the decades since, WESH 2 has made itself an indispensable part of the community. It was the first Central Florida station to have onsite Doppler Radar for weather forecasts. And its team of veteran reporters have a combined 219 years of experience covering Orlando and the surrounding areas. WESH 2 became an NBC affiliate in 1956, and for the past 15 years, has also been broadcasting hours of daily, local content on the CW. Acquired by Hearst Television in 1999, WESH 2 quickly became a stand-out organization in a company with more than 40 active television stations.

Today we hosted NASCAR driver Nick Sanchez at WESH 2 CW18 . He races the #48 car, which has our giant CW18 logo on it. Good luck to Nick this Friday as he gears up for the Xfinity Series Wawa 250 in Daytona. I challenged him to a race in our parking lot, but he chickened out. Something about not being good at turning to the right… #NASCAR #Hearst

With school just starting again in Florida, WESH 2 CW18's award-winning reporting initiative #SavingOurStreets dives into the hot topic of teens and tech. Florida just banned cell phone use for students during the school day. How will this help our kids and the bigger struggle of devices eroding so much of their lives? Parents, educators, experts and teens come together for this town hall hosted by Nancy Alvarez. See it Thursday at 8pm on WESH 2, wesh.com and our YouTube and social media channels. Special thanks to Orange County Public Schools, Osceola County School District, and Common Sense Media for taking part. And to the Dr. Phillips Center for the Performing Arts for hosting us.
