-type news show, with shorter report segments, and a more tabloid-feel.

The newscast is split into multiple parts, which mainly are: "Top Stories", "48 Hour Forecast", "FOX Up Front", "FloridaEdge", "NationalEdge", "FOX Focus", "WeatherEdge", "SportsEdge", and "The Lightning Round".

"The Lightning Round" is a 5-minute debate–opinion segment which features the host, the meteorologist, and the sports anchor, along with a "special guest", debating somewhat controversial news topics.

NewsEdge was, and still is somewhat, considered independent from WTVT's main news operation, and at one point, NewsEdge had different graphics and a different theme than the main news operation until the NewsEdge graphics and theme were integrated into the main news operation in February 2006.
