Tableview not reloading after unwind from segue in Swift 2

I have a working table populating data from an array declared as

var tableData:[AnyObject] = []

Here is the unwind function

@IBAction func unwindToVC(segue: UIStoryboardSegue) {
        if(segue.sourceViewController .isKindOfClass(AddNewsViewController))
        {
            let data:AddNewsViewController = segue.sourceViewController as! AddNewsViewController
            let newscontent = data.contentView.text
            let newstitle = data.contentView.text
            let author = data.contentView.author
            let dateposted = data.contentView.dateposted
            let icon = data.contentView.icon
            let location = data.contentView.location
            let description = data.contentView.description

            self.tableData.append(
                [
                    "title":newstitle,
                    "author":author,
                    "dateposted":date,
                    "icon":envelope,
                    "location":location,
                    "description":description
                ]
            )
            self.newsTable.reloadData()
            print(self.tableData)
        }
    }

the log returns the array with the recently appended data, but the tableview is not reloading with the new details.

Call newsTable.reloadData() in viewDidAppear rather than in unwindToVC. According to Apple:

For efficiency, the table view redisplays only those rows that are visible.

When unwindToVC gets called none of the rows are visible yet.
