| - SNN Local News 6 (formerly known as SNN 6, Six News Now, and SNN News 6; which were often used interchangeably) is a Comcast cable 24/7 television news station operating in Sarasota, Florida. The station operates in conjunction with the Sarasota Herald-Tribune, which houses the station in its downtown Sarasota building. The station reports in Sarasota, Manatee, and Charlotte counties. The broadcasts are only available on Comcast systems served by headends in Sarasota and Charlotte county. The station broadcasts local news 24/7, and reports live during breaking news stories and community events. Much of its content is recorded, but it is quick to break in live with important and breaking news. SNN Local News 6 is live at 5, 5:30, & 6 PM Monday-Friday. The station also does live weather in the mornings and evenings, especially during severe weather. The station occasionally broadcasts high school football games and parades in the area. SNN dropped its previous slogan of "Around The Corner, Around The Clock" and was using the slogan "Get More Local News 24/7". In addition, SNN changed its logo and went by SNN Local News 6, instead of the original SNN6. The station was the first all digital-disk based television station by use of the Avid non-linear editing systems. SNN was one of the first news operations to have a joined print and broadcast newsroom taking the theory of media convergence to another level. SNN has a special content use agreement with WFLA-TV and NBC Newschannel. While it is not considered an official affiliate, this agreement helped NBC bridge the gap in terms of news coverage between the Tampa Bay and Fort Myers television markets and allowed SNN to use stories from NBC News and its affiliates. That agreement replaced an earlier agreement between then SNN6, WTVT, and the now defunct CONUS Communications in 2002. That agreement also allowed for cooperation between the Sarasota Herald-Tribune and the Tampa Tribune, which operates as multimedia news organization. Reports from WFLA's Sarasota/Manatee reporter Jackie Barron regularly appear on the station. On January 29, 2009 it was announced that SNN News 6 would go dark at midnight on January 29, 2009. In November 2008, the owners of the Herald Tribune announced that they would seek to sell SNN News 6 and stop broadcasting at the end of December 2008. This deadline was extended since a group of investors was in place. However, on Thursday January 25, 2009 one investor dropped out of the deal. On February 26, 2009, after a four week hiatus, SNN was back on the air, with the majority of its former on-air staff.
