Each episode was 15 minutes long, made by
International News Service, and aired weekly, each Tuesday at 7:45 pm EST, immediately following
Camera Headlines which aired Monday through Friday at 7:30pm. As its name indicated, its main source of news information was the
International News Service. DuMont had aired
The Walter Compton News, first as a local show on
WTTG on June 16, 1947, then on the DuMont network from August 25, 1947, until January 1948, at which point DuMont replaced Compton's newscast with
I.N.S. Telenews and
Camera Headlines. After the two shows' cancellation in 1949, DuMont would not return to a network newscast until
The DuMont Evening News was launched in 1954. ==Episode status==
