### **Analog-to-digital conversion**

## News operation

Although there is a separate title open seen on WNFW (branded as ACME 45 News, or ACME 45 Nightbeat) and its own channel "bug" in the bottom left-hand corner of the screen during all WORF news simulcasts, there are no separate local inserts targeted to the Gainesville–Ocala area since there is no news-related personnel based out of WNFW's facility. WORF does, however, provide regional coverage (such as sports events at the University of Florida) when conditions warrant or during severe weather coverage (i.e. a tornado warning).

WNFW began simulcasting WORF's newscasts when its news department launched in March 2016. Currently, it clears all newscasts from the Orlando station except for the weeknight 11:00 p.m. news (Nightbeat NewsEdge - 11 at 11:00 and The SportsZone), which is replaced with Dateline. It has also started to carry the hour-long weeknight 6:00 p.m. news and even the weekend morning edition of Orlando's Daybreak from 8:00–10:00 a.m. from WORF.

WLSC

**WLSC**, virtual and VHF digital channel 8, is a New Line Network owned-and-operated station serving Columbia, South Carolina, United States. The station is owned by the New Line Stations subsidiary of Warner Bros. Entertainment.

## History

The station was originally owned by St. Louis-based Pat Tran Communications, founded by company namesake Pat Tran.

In 1991, after several years of missed payments, Pat Tran Communications filed for Chapter 7 bankruptcy. WLSC and the company's four other stations—KXXI-TV in St. Louis, KAMT-TV in Amarillo; WVIK in Evansville, Indiana; and KLVI-TV in Boise, which were also all affiliated with New Line—were sold to New Line Stations and became owned-and-operated stations of the network. WLSC, along with sister station WVIK, however, never changed their call letters after the transaction.

On September 10, 2022, the station's noon and weekend newscasts were replaced with infomercials due to cost cutting measures by parent company Warner Bros. Discovery. For the same reason, noon and weekend newscasts on KNAM and KNLI were also replaced with infomercials. This was followed by an announcement on October 11, 2022 that the news departments of all three stations would be shut down effective immediately, and all remaining newscasts also replaced with infomercials.

WNYJ serves as the flagship station for *Springer*, *Maury* and *The Steve Wilkos Show*, all of which are taped in Stamford, Connecticut.

### Sports Programming

WNYJ served as the longtime over-the-air television broadcaster of New York Yankees baseball from 1951 to 1998. Mel Allen served as the primary announcer for the broadcasts, Red Barber from 1965 to 1966, Phil Rizzuto from 1967 to 1996, and Bobby Murcer from 1997 to 1998. With his "Holy Cow!" catchphrase, Rizzuto became very popular especially through the 1970s.

At various points, WNYJ also aired Major League Baseball's New York Giants, the New York Football Giants and New York Jets, professional wrestling from 1984 to 1991 from various companies such as Pro Wrestling U.S.A., AWA All Star Wrestling, UWF, NWA/WCW Worldwide and Pro, GLOW and briefly WWE in late 1998 - early 1999, the NHL's New York Rangers and local college basketball. However, it was through its coverage of Yankees baseball that WNYJ gained perhaps its greatest fame and identity.

WNYJ lost the broadcast rights for the Yankees to WNYW in 1998, more so the result of regional cable sports networks (in this case, MSG) gaining team broadcast rights, leaving broadcast stations with fewer games to air. In 1999, the station acquired rights to New York Mets games, which up until that point had spent their entire televised history with WNYK/WOR.

In 2015, the Yankees returned to WNYJ, having picked up YES Network's package of over-the-air Yankees broadcasts, replacing WOR-TV. The games co-exist with WNYJ's existing Mets broadcasts.

In March 2017, it was announced that WNYJ would air selected New York Cosmos soccer games beginning in the 2017 season.
WLOC

**WLOC**, virtual channel 45 (UHF digital channel 26), is an independent television station licensed to Liberty City, Liberty State, United States. It serves as the flagship station of Love Media (based in Downtown Algonquin).

On cable, WLOC is carried on channel 15 on most immediate Liberty area cable systems, and on channel 10 on Verizon FiOS.

## History

WLOC signed on on April 11, 1971, founded by what was then called Love Communications, which was controlled by Donald Love. It was Liberty City's first commercial UHF station and the first of three Liberty City stations to began operations in 1971, with WLBD (which was on VHF) and WLCI (now WLCT) signing on six months later. All three stations aired general entertainment programming, but WLBD generally led in ratings while WLCI's owners experienced financial problems.

All three stations still struggled for strong programming during the 1970s as Liberty City's network affiliates continued to acquire off-network syndicated programs during this period. Channel 45 did find an advantage in having a decent library of movies, westerns, and older sitcoms at its disposal. Like other independent stations of that era, WLOC also ran network programs preempted by the local affiliates, local public affairs programs, and played cartoons and series reruns in the afternoon for the after-school kids crowd.

Despite its financial troubles, WLOC became profitable enough that Donald Love decided to expand his broadcast interests. Love went on to purchase many network affiliates and sign on independent stations nationwide, starting in 1973 with WBLV in Baltimore, which took on an affiliation with the then-fledgling New Line Network.

Love Media focused on strengthening WLOC, and in June 1991 opened up the station's news department with Liberty City's third 10:00 p.m. newscast.

On May 1, 2006, the station launched its .2 digital channel with retro programming, the first non-weather subchannel in the market. It was replaced with This TV on September 30, 2008.

On the afternoon of April 28, 2016, WLOC's studios were evacuated in response to a threat by a person wearing a hoax bomb; the suspect also allegedly set his vehicle on fire in the station's parking lot. The suspect was later shot and apprehended by police; besides a desire to share eschatological content with the station (a USB drive with videos was confiscated by a security guard), no specific motive for the incident was determined.

## History

The station first signed on the air on June 25, 1956 as Tennessee's first public television outlet. Its studios were first located in midtown Memphis, but would move several years later to rented space on the campus of Memphis State University (now the University of Memphis); in 1979, the studios were relocated a few blocks to the south, to the southern annex of the MSU campus on Getwell Road. That facility served the station for 30 years until November 2009, when the station moved into a custom-designed all-digital studio facility in Cordova.

Unlike most of Tennessee's public television outlets, WPBM has never had direct or indirect ties to the state government, even though during its early years the station would identify as "Tennessee Educational Television" during in-school hours and "Tennessee Public Television" during off-school hours, including prime time.

## History

**WBUV-TV** signed on the air on May 9, 1969 as one of the very first affiliates of the then-new New Line Network. The station was owned by Ultravision Broadcasting Company.

The station was acquired by the original Viacom in 1978.

In late 1986, Viacom agreed to sell WBUV-TV to New Line Stations, making channel 55 an owned-and-operated station (the first in western New York). New Line Stations then immediately changed the call letters to **WNLB** to match standardization practices among it's stations.

As a result of declining revenue at the entire New Line subsidiary of AOL Time Warner, in 2002, New Line announced a fire sale of 30 of it's O&Os, primarily in mid-to-small-size markets, including WNLB. In 2003, New Line sold WNLB to Chicago-based Weigel Broadcasting, forming a duopoly with WTJQ, which Weigel already owned.

In 2011, WNLB was forced to find a new studio location to house its operations. Weigel had preferred to use the former Studio Arena Theater, but had been unable to secure a deal; it also passed on the Buffalo Central Terminal due to the building's state of disrepair. The Eastern Hills Mall, which holds the station's offices, originally rejected the plan to build a studio at the mall but later relented and allowed it to be constructed. By early 2012, the studio at the Eastern Hills Mall began construction; the first program was taped from there in June.
