Dale Hunter

Born in Saskatchewan, raised in Manitoba, and now living in Alberta, I'm a prairie boy through and through, and proud of it.  I'm also a confessed "news-aholic", with over a decade of journalism experience.

I developed an interest in research and writing while still in high school in Neepawa, Manitoba.   After winning awards for my documentaries on the town's history and tourism, I was recruited to work for the local newspaper and cable tv station.   I assisted them in developing Neepawa's first television newscast.

I then jumped to radio news.   I have worked for six different radio stations across the prairies...peaking with a brief stint as news director in Prince Albert, Saskatchewan.  In 2003, I made my return to tv, becoming first a reporter, then an anchor at a television station in northern Ontario.

Since arriving in Medicine Hat, I've tackled the posts of political correspondent, crime reporter, embedded journalist, radio co-host, news anchor, and...the most difficult...weatherman.

When I'm not co-hosting NewsWatch, I can also be found out enjoying a good movie, a good book, a good concert, hiking in the hills, or debating politics with whoever'll listen.  'News-aholic', remember?
