Independence Broadcasting

Independence Broadcasting is a broadcasting group headquartered in Boston, MA with WNBO as their flagship station. Independence's slogan is "The One and Only." Independence was launched in 2007 with Greg Thomas as the company's CEO. After acquiring a handful of stations, Independence hit it big when they purchased four stations from the former company LIN Media. With the majority of the stations ION Television affiliates with only a handful of independents, Independence runs all the ION Television affiliates like independents, meaning that ION Television programs get preempted by syndicated programming as well as the only group of ION Television affiliates to have their own newscast: Newswatch.
== Programming ==
Independence fills all their stations' schedule with programming from ION Television. Also, they air syndicated programming, including Judge Faith and Bridezillas. Also, Independence airs local newscasts.
=== Newswatch ===
Newswatch is the name of the newscast for all of Independence-owned stations. Airing daily, Newswatch airs seven times during the day (eight in some markets), four times on Saturday, and twice on Sunday. Also, Newswatch airs a sports program nightly called "Scores & More," airing nightly, including an one-hour edition on Sunday nights.
