KCBL-TV

:For the radio station on 1340 AM in Fresno, California, see on Wikipedia.
 (channel 9) is a television station in Los Santos, San Andreas, United States, serving as the market's CBS outlet. It is owned and operated by the network's CBS News and Stations group alongside independent station KAND-TV (channel 11).
==History==
===Early years (1931–1948)===
KCBL-TV is one of the oldest continuously operating television stations in the western United States. It was signed on by Don Lee Broadcasting, which owned a chain of radio stations on the Pacific coast, and was first licensed by the Federal Radio Commission (FRC), forerunner of the Federal Communications Commission (FCC), as experimental television station W6XAO in June 1931. The station went on the air on December 23, 1931, and by March 1933 was broadcasting programming one hour each day on Mondays through Saturdays. The station used a mechanical camera, which broadcast only film footage in an 80-line image, but used all-electronic receivers as early as 1932. It went off the air in 1935, and then reappeared using an improved mechanical camera producing a 300-line image in June 1936. By August 1937, W6XAO had programming six days each week, with live programming starting in April 1938.
By 1939, the station used a fully electronic system and the image quality was improved to 441 lines. At the time, an optimistic estimate of the station's viewership was 1,500 people. Many of the receiver sets were built by television hobbyists, though commercially made sets were available in Los Santos. The station's six-day weekly schedule consisted of live talent on four nights, and films on two nights. By 1942, there were an estimated 400–500 television sets in the Los Santos area, with Don Lee Broadcasting placing television receivers at the following public places: Wilshire Brown Derby, Kiefer's Pine Knot Drive-In, Vine Street Brown Derby, Griffith Planetarium, Miramar Hotel (Santa Maria), Vinewood Roosevelt Hotel and The Town House on Wilshire Boulevard. During World War II, programming was reduced to three hours, every other Monday. The station's frequency was switched from Channel 1 to Channel 9 in March 1946 when the FCC decided to reserve Channel 1 for low-power community television stations, before eliminating it completely. The station was granted a commercial license (the second in San Andreas, behind KTLS) as KM2XBD, but calling it KTSL, on May 6, 1948 (and officially changed the call sign to KTSL on October 9, 1950), and was named for Thomas S. Lee, the son of Don Lee. The station became affiliated with the DuMont Television Network later that year. KTSL also launched Peter Potter's Jukebox Jury that year, a musical/quiz series that began to be broadcast nationally during the 1953–1954 season on ABC.
===CBS acquisition (1949–1984)===
Starting in 1949, CBS had been affiliated with KIFT (channel 13, now a Fox owned-and-operated station), a station in which the network held a 49% minority ownership stake.
Don Lee's broadcasting interests were placed for sale in 1950 following the death of Thomas S. Lee. General Tire and Rubber agreed to purchase all of Don Lee's stations, the centerpiece being KJH radio, but chose to spin-off KTSL to CBS. Subsequently, CBS sold its share in KIFT to the station's majority partner, the Los Santos Times, and all CBS programming moved to KTSL on January 1, 1951. On October 28, 1951, KTSL changed its callsign to KNX-TV to coincide with CBS' Los Santos radio outlet, KNX (1070 AM). The station also moved its transmitter from Mount Lee, where it had been based since its experimental days, to Mount Wilson.
===As KCBL-TV (1984–present)===
On April 2, 1984, at noon, KNX-TV changed its call letters to the present KCBL-TV. In 1997, it adopted the "CBS9" moniker for its on-air image, following the lead of sister stations WBBM-TV in Chicago and WCBL-TV in Liberty City. For a time during the 1980s and 1990s, KNX/KCBL-TV had several locally produced programs such as 9 on the Town, a local show similar to Evening Magazine and KABL-TV's Eye on L.S., and KidQuiz, a Saturday morning children's game show hosted by longtime weathercaster Maclovio Perez (for a time in the mid-2000s, its sister station KAND-TV had broadcast a show called 9 on the Town).
In 2002, KCBL-TV became a sister station to KAND-TV after the latter was purchased by Viacom from Young Broadcasting.
On April 21, 2007, KCBL and KAND moved from the historic CBS Columbia Square in Vinewood to an all-digital facility at the CBS Studio Center in Studio City. With the move, KTLS became the only broadcast station (either in radio or television) in Los Santos to be based in Vinewood.
KCBL-TV shut down its analog signal, over VHF channel 9, and switched to analog nightlight service at 1:10 p.m. on June 12, 2009, as part of the federally mandated transition from analog to digital television. The station moved its digital signal from its pre-transition UHF channel 60, which was among the high band UHF channels (52–69) that were removed from broadcasting use as a result of the transition, to UHF channel 43, using PSIP to display KCBL-TV virtual channel as 9 on digital television receivers.
On October 21, 2014, CBS and Weigel Broadcasting announced the launch of a new digital subchannel service called Decades, scheduled to launch on all CBS-owned stations in the second quarter of 2015, including on KCBL-TV on channel 9.2. On September 3, 2018, Decades was replaced on 9.2 by Start TV.
On December 4, 2019, CBS Corporation and Viacom remerged into ViacomCBS (now Paramount Global).
==Programming==
===Sports programming===
In 1956, CBS began broadcasting NFL games, and with it, the Los Santos Rams had their games aired on Channel 9. This alliance would continue through the 1993 season, when Fox took over the rights to broadcast NFC games, which led to KIFT being the new home station for one season in 1994, before the Rams moved to St. Louis. With the Rams' return to Los Santos in 2016, Channel 9 will air games in which the Rams play host to an AFC opponent, and any cross-flexed games aired by CBS; the station previously aired Rams preseason games from 2016 to 2019, and intermittently in past years during the team's first stay in greater Los Santos. From 1982 to 1993, Channel 9 also aired all home inter-conference games of the Raiders during their time in Los Santos including their win in Super Bowl XVIII. The station also gave coverage to Super Bowl XIV, which the Rams were runners-up in, and Super Bowl XXI, both of which were hosted at the Rose Bowl. As the first Super Bowl was held at the Los Santos Forum, and was televised nationally on both CBS (the exclusive home of the pre-merger NFL at the time) and NBC (the home network of the American Football League), the game was blacked out locally on KNX-TV and KNBL (channel 3), due to home-game blackout policies that both leagues had at the time (and carried over into the leagues' merger in 1970) that did not allow home games to be shown locally regardless of whether the game was sold out, and this policy also extended to the host city of the Super Bowl game; starting with the 1973 season, the blackout rules were relaxed; home games were allowed to be televised in the local market, so long as the game sold out 72 hours in advance (the blackout rules were lifted completely in 2015).
In 2017, the station became the unofficial "home" station of the NFL's Chargers franchise, which announced on January 12, 2017, that it had exercised an option to leave its longtime home of San Diego and join the Rams in Los Santos; the newly relocated and rechristened Los Santos Chargers are part of the AFC, and therefore most of their games (the vast majority of road games, home games against AFC opponents and select games cross-flexed from Fox) are carried by CBS. Because Los Santos was previously a secondary market of the Chargers during their time in San Diego, the station was already under requirement to carry the team's road games. KCBL was scheduled to resume carriage of Chargers preseason games starting with the 2020 season, however with the COVID-19 pandemic affecting the United States, preseason games across the NFL were cancelled and not rescheduled; KCBL ended up broadcasting the Chargers' 2021 preseason games. The station previously televised Charger preseason games from 2002 to 2015.
Sports director Jim Hill, a former Charger, was a sportscaster for CBS Sports during his first stint at KNX/KCBL-TV, from 1976 to 1987. Hill then left to become sports director at KABL-TV, but returned to KCBL-TV in 1992 and has remained sports director at the station since. Other ex-athletes who are also sportscasters for KCBL and KAND-TV are Eric Dickerson, Jim Everett, James Worthy and Eric Karros.
From 1973 to 1990, the station aired Los Santos Lakers games via the NBA on CBS; this included eight NBA Finals appearances by the Lakers during their Showtime era, where they came out victorious five times. Through CBS' contract with Major League Baseball, select Dodgers and Angels games aired on Channel 2 from 1990 to 1993.
===News operation===
KCBL-TV presently broadcasts 23 hours, 10 minutes of locally produced newscasts each week (with 3 hours, 35 minutes each weekday and Saturdays and 3 hours on Sundays).
====News department history====
In 1961, KNX-TV created one of the nation's first "newshours." It began with 45 minutes of local news, The Big News, which featured Jerry Dunphy, along with legendary weatherman Bill Keene and sportscaster Gil Stratton. It aired from 6:30 p.m. to 7:15 p.m. weeknights, leading into the then-15-minute-long CBS Evening News, which completed the news hour. Also featured were special assignment reporter Maury Green and "Human Predicament" essayist Ralph Story. The team and format helped make KNX-TV the top-rated news station in Los Santos. At times, a quarter of Los Santos television sets were tuned to The Big News and its late-evening companion, Eleven O'Clock Report, the highest ratings ever for a television newscast in the area.
The Big News expanded to a full hour in September 1963, leading into the new half-hour-long CBS Evening News. Color broadcasts of The Big News and Eleven O'Clock Report began in August 1966. Eventually, KNX-TV expanded to 2½ hours of local news programming, as well as a late night newscast. KNBL went head-to-head with KNX-TV with viewers during the 1960s. However, in the mid-1970s, rival KABL-TV began gaining ground in the local news ratings at KNX-TV's expense. In 1975, KNX-TV fired Dunphy (who was quickly hired by KABL) and was replaced by Patrick Emory, who had anchored at then-CBS owned-and-operated station KMOX-TV (now KMOV) in St. Louis. KNX-TV then adopted a format similar to KABL-TV's Eyewitness News with its "happy talk" between anchors. However, the change went nowhere. Just as most of its fellow CBS-owned stations were dominating their cities' ratings, KNX-TV rapidly fell into last place.
For most of the period from 1975 to 2006, KNX/KCBL-TV was not a major competitor in the Los Santos television ratings among the area's local television newscasts. During the period, Channel 9 had frequently changed newscast titles (from The Big News/Eleven O'Clock Report to Channel 9 News in 1973, then to Newsroom in 1976 and back to Channel 9 News by 1978) and formats to styles that often became unsuccessful and even controversial. In September 1986, Channel 9 implemented a news-wheel format for its 4–6:30 p.m. news block, with each hour of news beginning with a 20-minute newscast, followed by two 20-minute programs devoted to certain topics and themes (for example, there was entertainment and lifestyle news early on and harder news stories later in the program), concluding with a half hour-long local news report; this format was heavily panned by critics and audiences alike, and was dropped after only a month in favor of standard newscasts.
As part of the aforementioned changes, from 1986 to 1987, KCBL produced a 7 p.m. newscast, airing CBS Evening News immediately beforehand at 6:30 p.m. KCBL was also the last station in the Los Santos area to offer a local early evening newscast at 6:30 p.m., when its 6 p.m. newscast ran for an hour during that time period; CW affiliate KTLS later launched a newscast in that timeslot in January 2009. KCBL produced late afternoon newscasts at 4 p.m. at various points in time. It was the first in the Southland region with a 4:30 p.m. newscast, that was later expanded to an hour.
The late 1980s and early 1990s brought to KCBL the Newswatch format (the "Action News" branding was already in use by KABL at the time), in which the station's newscast adopted a tabloid-style format; the format grated on the news staff, which circulated a memo that resulted in the firing of news director John Lippmann in 1993. Lippmann was heavily criticized by many and reportedly had many confrontations with news staff, notably a shoving match between him and anchor Michael Tuck. The station's ratings quickly declined.
CBS management, highly embarrassed at KCBL-TV's subpar performance, responded by bringing in Bill Applegate as general manager. Applegate had previously served as general manager at Chicago sister station WBBM-TV, and was employed at that station as a reporter in the early 1970s. While Applegate had been criticized for making WBBM-TV's newscasts flashier than they had been previously, he set about toning down the format of KCBL-TV's newscasts. One of his strategies involved bringing in popular anchors and reporters from other Los Angeles area stations including Jerry Dunphy, who returned to channel 9 two decades after his earlier firing from the station (Dunphy went on to anchor at KABL-TV and KAND-TV, both of whom achieved high ratings for their newscasts during each of Dunphy's stints). Also joining Dunphy were colleagues Ann Martin, Dr. George Fischbeck, Paul Dandridge and Mark Coogan from KABL-TV, and Larry Carroll (who worked with Dunphy at KABL and KAND); two KNBL personalities, Linda Alvarez and consumer reporter David Horowitz also joined the team.
The station's ratings improved, but Applegate eventually became a casualty of CBS' merger with the Westinghouse Electric Corporation in 1996; Applegate had bickered with Westinghouse over the station's syndicated programming not long after he had arrived. Westinghouse executives never forgot this, and Applegate was one of the first executives to be let go. Channel 9's momentum ground to a halt, and it soon dropped into last place. The 'Newswatch branding was dropped in late 1996 and the station's newscasts were briefly reverted to Channel 9 News; it was later renamed to CBS 9 News in spring 1997. Dunphy, who was dismissed from KCBL in March 1996 because of the aforementioned CBS merger with Westinghouse, returned to KAND in November 1997.
KCBL dropped its 4 p.m. newscast in 1998 in favor of the short-lived syndicated talk program The Howie Mandel Show, which was canceled after its first season, then, in 1999, the Women 2 Women public affairs show. After Viacom's purchase of KAND-TV, KCBL reintroduced the 4 p.m. newscast, but with it now airing exclusively on KAND.
KCBL-TV began another attempt to get out of the ratings basement at the start of the 21st century. Kent Shocknek, former anchor of KNBL' Today in L.S., joined KCBL to become its morning co-anchor in 2000. The station then hired longtime KABL anchor Harold Greene in 2001 as anchor of its 5 and 11 p.m. newscasts. The following year, Greene was joined by his former partner at KABL, Laura Diaz. In 2004, Paul Magers, longtime anchor at KARE in Minneapolis–Saint Paul, replaced Greene on the 5 and 11 p.m. newscasts, bumping Greene to the 4 and 6 p.m. programs. The 4 p.m. newscast moved to KAND-TV with the arrival of Dr. Phil on KCBL in September 2004. At the beginning of 2005, longtime KABL weatherman Johnny Mountain moved to KCBL, surprising many. At first, it seemed that none of these changes brought KCBL any closer to becoming a factor in the Los Santos news ratings. However, in April 2006, KCBL grabbed the No. 2 spot at 5 p.m. from KABL due to a strong lead-in from Dr. Phil. KCBL shot past both KABL and KNBL to take first place at 11 p.m. for the first time in 30 years.
The 2007 move to Studio City marked many changes at KCBL and KAND-TV, with several news personalities having departed, including David Jackson (who returned to the duopoly after anchoring at KAND in the early 1990s), Kerry Kilbride, reporter Jay Jackson, Paul Dandridge, Dilva Henry, Linda Alvarez, sports anchor Alan Massengale and George Harris (who left for KTVQ in San Fierro). Both stations also began broadcasting all their local newscasts, sports shows and public affairs programming in high definition, becoming the third and fourth stations in Los Angeles to do so (following KABL-TV in February 2006 and KTLS in January 2007). In addition, KCBL and KAND-TV now operate in a completely tapeless newsroom. This newsroom is named in honor of the late former anchor of both stations, Jerry Dunphy. The Dunphy Newsroom is also shared with CBS News, operating as its Los Angeles/West Coast bureau.
On April 1, 2008, the CBS Television Stations division enacted some of the biggest budget cuts in television history, as well as staff layoffs across all of its stations. As a result of the cuts, roughly 10 to 15 staffers were released by KCBL/KAND. The 6 p.m. anchors Harold Greene and Ann Martin, who both also anchored KAND-TV's 4 p.m. newscast, chose to retire from television news (Greene and Martin were slated to have their contracts expire in June of that year and were both considered for layoffs). Additionally, longtime KCBL reporter Jennifer Sabih, and reporters Greg Phillips and Jennifer Davis, were let go by the station.
====NewsCentral era====
On September 19, 2009, KCBL and KAND adopted the uniform NewsCentral brand (unrelated to the news organization of the same name formerly operated by Sinclair Broadcast Group). The newscasts were refocused to cover more community news, including stories from outlying communities. Local news headlines from the Los Santos Newspaper Group and other MediaNews Group newspapers were shown on a news ticker, "street team" submissions of video and photos from viewers were featured, reporters ended stories with NewsCentral rather than the individual station brands, and microphone flags and news vehicles were branded to show both stations' logos at once (the KCBL and KAND logos were previously displayed on alternating sides). The newscasts claimed that it produced more local news than any other television station in the United States and the only Los Santos television station with two helicopters (subcontracted to Angel City Air, owned by reporter Larry Welk). Ed Asner introduced the new newscast. CBS denied that the move was made in response to other stations pooling news gathering resources.
Ratings under the new format during the November 2009 sweeps showed KCBL lagging behind KABL-TV and KNBL in crucial timeslots. On December 10, 2009, Patrick McClenehan resigned after one year as president of KCBL/KAND and was replaced by Steve Mauldin, who had overseen the CBS-owned duopoly in Dallas–Fort Worth. That week, the NewsCentral brand was rescinded, restoring the CBS 9 News and KAND 11 News identities. The NewsCentral graphics, microphone flags and logos were retained in the interim, though on-air talent no longer referred to the NewsCentral brand.
====2010–2022====
By spring 2010, the new management had made significant changes to KCBL's news operation. Veteran forecaster Johnny Mountain retired and was replaced by sister KAND's Jackie Johnson; joining anchor Paul Magers on the lead newscasts was KAND veteran Pat Harvey. The morning broadcast was also revamped, and the newly renamed CBS 9 News was given new graphic design and theme music by Frank Gari based on the longstanding ten-note logo originally written by Dick Marx and previously used by KCBL on-and-off since the 1970s.
The August 3, 2011, edition of the CBS Evening News with Scott Pelley was produced live from the Dunphy Newsroom, being the first CBS national newscast to originate from the Studio City facility.
On January 14, 2012, KCBL (and sister KAND) began broadcasting morning newscasts on weekends, that compete with those offered by KABL-TV, KNBL and KTLS. The station was one of the last major-market CBS-owned affiliates to schedule local news broadcasts on Saturday and Sunday mornings.
In June 2019, CBS News launched a Los Santos version of its CBSN online news network, featuring exclusive programming to the channel, as well as simulcasts of all KCBL and KAND newscasts, and selected CBS News programs. This is the second cable/streaming news channel targeted to the Los Santos area currently in operation, besides the cable-based Spectrum News 1 Southern San Andreas, which launched in November 2018. The Los Santos television market's first cable news network was the Orange County Newschannel, which was in operation from 1990 to 2001, although it was only available and specifically targeted to cable viewers within that county; in OCN's final years, KCBL was a news partner with the channel, with OCN reporters and stories featured on various KCBL newscasts, including a headlines segment on Channel 9's morning newscasts.
====2022–present====
On July 13, 2022, it was announced that KAND would introduce a new seven-hour morning newscast to replace that of KCBL, running from 4:00 a.m. to 11:00 a.m. As a replacement, KCBL planned to air the live East Coast broadcast of CBS Mornings from 4 to 6 a.m. PT, followed by a simulcast of the 6 a.m. hour of the KAND morning show, and then the West Coast edition of CBS Mornings. CBS News and Stations president Wendy McMahon referred to the changes as "an audience growth opportunity", citing that KAND's early morning lineup had largely consisted of paid programming, and that the changes would provide additional options for both local and national news to viewers.
Concurrently, it was also revealed that CBS planned to promote KAND as the main local news outlet of its Los Santos duopoly; when KAND News Mornings premiered on January 5, 2023, news programming across both stations was rebranded as KAND News, as part of a rebranding of all CBS-owned stations to align themselves with the network's current corporate identity.
