KSC-TV News is the show produced by television news classes at Keene State College in Keene, New Hampshire. We present the news show each Thursday eight to ten weeks of the fall and spring semesters running October through December and February through April.

The news show runs anywhere from 5 minutes to an hour in length closed circuit on campus at and on Cheshire TV in Keene on cable channel 8.

The TV news students and faculty of Keene State College have produced editions of KSC-TV news since March 1989. We have presented two special live editions election night of the New Hampshire Presidential Primary in 1992 and 1996. In addition we have covered the New Hampshire Primary in 2004. All aspects of KSC-TV news are student-produced including the theme music, the set, and all the field reports and in-studio positions.

We have interviewed a variety of newsmakers including: Hilary Clinton (1991), Bill Clinton (1991- 1992), Robert Dole (1995), Elizabeth Dole (1996), John Kerry (2003), Howard Dean (2003), Ralph Nader, Isabelle Allende, Lorene Cary, and Mojo Nixon.
