News Hour anchors Leslie Roberts & Anne Mroczkowski lead a team of journalists who cover stories that make a difference in the Greater Toronto Area and across Ontario.

Awarded “Best Newscast” 2 years in a row from the RTNDA, the Global News team is committed to providing viewers with relevant news that will help them make important decisions in their daily lives.  Special daily features include: Family Health with Beatrice Politi and Consumer SOS reports with Sean O’Shea. Plus, Susan Hay profiles individuals in the community who are “Making a Difference.”

Meteorologist Anthony Farnell provides viewers with reliable weather information with a state of the art weather system and his own forcast model to accurately forecast weather across the province.  In addition, Farnell offers a personalized Forecast4Me e-mail and online weather service to viewers.

Global News also has its own unique Skytracker team which involves citizen weather enthusiasts who report on developing weather stories across the province.  From breaking weather news to storm damage and beautiful weather phenomena, Global News Skytrackers send in their digital photographs or video highlights to: skytrackers@globaltv.com.

The Global News Chopper allows the News Hour to cover more breaking news and traffic issues than any other Toronto newscast -- helping viewers stay on top of important local news.

Rounding out the cast is sports coverage provided by The Score on Global News, plus, the latest entertainment news updates anchored by Cheryl Hickey and Rick Campanelli from the ET Canada studios.
