KAKE presently broadcasts 34 hours of locally produced newscasts each week (with 5 + 1 ⁄ 2 hours each weekday, 3 + 1 ⁄ 2 hours on Saturdays and three hours on Sundays). For 30 years, KAKE was the highest-rated station in the Wichita–Hutchinson market, even though it did not build an extensive translator/satellite network in central and western Kansas until the 1980s.
The station's original power, was only 250 watts and the studios were located at 416 West Douglas Avenue. The station was a network affiliate of the Mutual Broadcasting System and later the Don Lee Network. In 1954, KAKE added a TV station, KAKE-TV. It eventually affiliated with ABC.
It initially aired some local news, only for KAKE to cut that back altogether not long after relaunch—making it the first in a series of local news cuts at western Kansas TV stations in the late 1980s. Some local news returned with 90-second inserts in 1990 hosted by station manager Wayne Roberts, in part to help KLBY sell advertising.
KAKE General Manager Mike Rajewski said the station has a policy on conflicts of interest but declined to say whether he believed Wu violated it when she was a reporter.
