KLAS officials acknowledged that competing against prime time programming would be difficult for Las Vegas One, but believed that the channel would be successful.

[14] As of July 1998, Las Vegas One reached only 65 percent of the viewing audience and did not have enough viewers to be included in the Nielsen ratings.

[16] Ratings for the channel increased during 1999 and 2000 when it provided complete coverage of the Ted Binion murder trial.

"[21] Linda Bonnici, the general manager of Las Vegas One, stated, "New technology has significantly changed how consumers access local news and information.

Those changes, in addition to the continued economic challenges, have driven all media outlets to reevaluate how to best serve Southern Nevada.

"[22] Stoldal believed that the channel needed more local programming, an idea that could not be implemented due to a limited budget.

Stoldal also stated that the channel suffered as a result of being based at KLAS' studios: "We were living in someone else's house.

Additional programs included The Wall Street Journal Report and Bloomberg Business News.

[25] A one-hour morning news program, DayONE Las Vegas, premiered in March 2000 with Nancy Byrne as anchor.

[31][32] In November 2003, DayONE Las Vegas was replaced by a morning talk and entertainment show hosted by Clint Holmes and Sheena Easton.

With Clint Holmes and Sheena Easton, ended production in February 2004 and moved to KVVU-TV later that year under the name The Vegas Show.

[36][37][38] Because of poor economic conditions, News One at 9:00 p.m. was suddenly cancelled in October 2009, a decision that surprised Gillan.
