TV Channel Overview
WJHG-TV, known on air as NewsChannel 7, is an NBC-affiliated television
station licensed to Panama City, Florida, United States. Its studios are
in Panama City Beach, and its local journalism is directed toward communities

As the NBC outlet in the Panama City market, WJHG-TV combines network programming with locally produced journalism centered on regional weather, public affairs, and community issues.
