TV Tacoma will add two more programs to its lineup starting June 1, 2012 – the “VA News” and “The Field Report”. The new programming will broadcast Tuesday through Sunday on TV Tacoma each week.
“VA News” is a weekly program designed to provide timely news and information about the Department of Veteran Affairs and the many programs and services available to American Veteran’s. “The Field Report” is produced at Joint Base Lewis-McChord, and will give viewers insight into events and activities of Tacoma’s closest military neighbor.
“VA News” and “The Field Report” will be broadcast together each week at the following times:
• Tuesdays – 11:30 a.m.
• Thursdays – 4 a.m.
• Fridays – 4 p.m.
• Saturdays – 5:30 a.m.
• Sundays – 9 a.m.
“The Military has a long history in this community,” said John N. Miller, TV Tacoma Production Coordinator. “With so many in our community having served our nation, or having some tie to Joint Base Lewis-McChord we felt that these shows would provide useful and interesting information to our viewers.”

On Click!, TV Tacoma can be seen on Channel 12 in the Tacoma city limits and in Pierce County, with the exception of University Place, where it can be found on Channel 21.
