WZAR News

While you may only see a few faces on-screen, there are many who contribute to WZAR TV.

Zachary Reinert
Zach is the owner and creator of WZAR TV.  He first became interested in computers, which then expanded into television, with an old VHS camcorder, a VCR, and a television.  Zach continued to build his collection of equipment until he had a fully functional TV studio.  He decided that he should put it to use and do one of his other favorite things to do, serve the community.

Zach now continues to manage WZAR TV and hosts WZAR News and Mile27.  He does many of the administrative and technical tasks, as well as being the primary editor of TV shows and customer projects.  He hopes to continue to expand to better serve the community and to inspire others.  Zach is also a collector of vintage television and broadcast items and is known for spending the majority of his time at the studio, whether it’s for work or play.

Bethanne Reinert
Beth has been with WZAR since the early days, usually providing on-air talent.  She was originally known for going around to car shows and other public events and performing interviews with the people there.  These days, though, she is often found shooting video for WZAR News, assisting in writing the show, managing the community calendar, and doing other administrative tasks.  Beth also enjoys taking photos of the world around her.
