WUAB launched a weekend version of The Ten O'Clock News by September 1989, and by 1990, the station's $2 million investment (equivalent to $ in ) into the news department was fully recouped. Hetherington was replaced as lead anchor by Jack Marschall in the summer of 1990, with ratings for the newscast repeatedly surpassing expectations. WUAB began producing two daily newscasts for WOIO on February 6, 1995, at 6 p.m. and 11 p.m. along with their existing 10 p.m. newscast under the umbrella brand Cleveland Television News. WOIO's newscasts originated within the joint newsroom in a style derived heavily from CITY-TV's CityPulse, while WUAB's newscasts came from a separate, more traditional set, both originating from Reserve Square in Downtown Cleveland. Marschall, Robinson, and Shanley were the only three on-air staffers to work exclusively for WUAB. Beginning in March 1996, WOIO and WUAB's newscasts were rebroadcast on an hour tape-delay over Akron station WAOH-LP (channel 29) and its Cleveland simulcast following the dissolution of WAKC-TV's news department. Gib Shanley left the station at the end of 1996, with Jeff Phelps as his replacement. Robinson left in February 1997 to join WKYC, with Cynthia Tinsley taking over as 10 p.m. co-anchor. Kimberly Godwin-Webb, who in 2021 would become the first Black female president of ABC News, served as news director for both stations from 1996 to 1998. During this period, WUAB's 10 p.m. newscast began trailing WJW's newscast in the ratings, with the spring 1998 sweeps period showing WJW beating WUAB by a 2–1 margin despite the popularity of Marschall and Tinsley; this was attributed partly to UPN prime time programming providing a weaker than expected lead-in audience, as well as WOIO's news department assuming top priority. WUAB added an 11:30 a.m. newscast in October 1997, both as a complement to WOIO's established noon newscast and to help establish an autonomous identity for WUAB, but this was cancelled in December 1998 due to low ratings. By 1999, newscasts were branded Hometeam 19 News and Hometeam 43 News, based on WUAB's "Cleveland's Home Team" slogan, with Marschall assuming lead anchor duties at WOIO. WUAB began simulcasting WOIO's noon news in 2002, with all "19" branding remaining intact. Newscasts on WOIO and WUAB have utilized the same branding since May 2002, when all newscasts were renamed Action News, later amended to 19 Action News. As part of an overall rebrand to Cleveland 19 News
