NewsWatch on Channel 15, popularly known as NewsWatch 15, is a 24-hour regional cable news television network based in New Orleans, Louisiana, jointly owned by Gannett and Cox Communications. It operates out of the studios of WWL-TV.

Viewed on cable channel 15 in the New Orleans area, the network rebroadcasts the latest edition of WWL's "Eyewitness News" 24 hours a day. It also simulcasts current live newscasts, and broadcasts breaking news when preempting content on WWL's primary channel (channel 4) is deemed unnecessary.

The constant rebroadcasting of its newscasts has not proved detrimental to WWL's ratings. The station continues perennially to be the highest ranked station in the New Orleans metropolitan area, and one of the highest rated stations in the country.
