KGW

KGW, VHF digital channel 8, is an NBC-affiliated television station located in Portland, Oregon, United States. Owned by Sander Media, LLC, KGW is operated by Tegna, Inc. through a shared services agreement. KGW maintains studios on Jefferson Street in southwestern Portland, and its transmitter is located in the city's Sylvan-Highlands section. KGW also serves as the Portland bureau for co-owned regional news channel Northwest Cable News and produces news segments for the channel.
==History==
The station was an extension of radio station KGW (620 AM, now KPOJ). ''The Oregonian'' newspaper created KGW-AM by purchasing an existing transmitter from the Shipowners Radio Service. The U.S. Department of Commerce licensed the station, and it began broadcasting on March 25, 1922〔"KGW To Celebrate Tenth Anniversary". (March 20, 1932). ''The Sunday Oregonian'', p. 1.〕 (after a test transmission two days earlier).〔("The Oregonian Test of Radio Makes Hit" ). (March 24, 1922). ''The Morning Oregonian'', p. 5.〕 The station's studios and transmitter were located in The Oregonian Building〔("Radio Is Installed By The Oregonian" ). (March 19, 1922). ''The Sunday Oregonian'', p. 1.〕〔(【引用サイトリンク】of )">url=http://www.pdxhistory.com/html/kgw_radio.html )〕 (of 1892) until 1943, when a fire destroyed them〔"Blaze Hits Oregonian Top Floors". (September 24, 1943). ''The Oregonian'', p. 1.〕 and the station moved to other quarters.〔 ''The Oregonian'' applied for and received a Federal Communications Commission (FCC) construction permit for a television station in 1947, but later returned it in order to focus on its core newspaper business. It later bought KOIN-AM and used it to start KOIN-TV (channel 6).
''The Oregonian'' sold KGW-AM-FM to North Pacific Television, a consortium of Seattle businesswoman Dorothy Bullitt and five Portland businessmen, on November 1, 1953. Bullitt's King Broadcasting Company, who also owned KING-AM-FM-TV in Seattle, was the largest shareholder in the venture, with a 40 percent stake. Bullitt eventually bought out her partners, and KGW-TV signed on the air on December 15, 1956 on channel 8 as an ABC affiliate. On April 26, 1959, it swapped affiliations with KPTV (channel 12), becoming an NBC affiliate (KGW's sister station, KING-TV in Seattle, also switched from ABC to NBC with KOMO-TV at the same time).
The KGW-TV tower was a prominent victim of the Northwest's historic, and violent Columbus Day Storm on October 12, 1962. The station returned to the air on October 16 using a temporary tower, as well as an antenna on loan from KTNT-TV (now KSTW) of Tacoma, Washington. A new antenna and tower were placed into service on January 28, 1963.
In January 1964, KGW began building a new broadcast center at 1501 SW Jefferson Street,〔"KGW Begins Building New 'Broadcast House'". (January 12, 1964). ''The Oregonian'', Section 3, p. 9.〕 which has served as its headquarters and main studios location ever since. The station moved into the new facility, from an old building located two blocks to the east, in 1965, the radio facilities in the spring〔Murphy, Francis (May 10, 1965). "Behind The Mike" (regular media column). ''The Oregonian'', Section 2, p. 7.〕 and the television facilities in July 1965.〔"KGW Unveils New Studios". (July 11, 1965). ''The Sunday Oregonian'', "TV Key" section, p. 14.〕 Located at the west edge of downtown Portland, the two-story building had approximately of space.〔
In 1992, King Broadcasting (which also included KING-TV in Seattle, KREM-TV in Spokane, Washington, KTVB in Boise, Idaho and KHNL in Honolulu, Hawaii) merged with The Providence Journal Company. Only five years later, in 1997, KGW became part of the Belo Corporation when it bought The Providence Journal Company.
KGW aired a Portland Trail Blazers game in high-definition on October 24, 2007. On October 12, 2011, KGW announced that unless a new contract agreement could be reached that it would drop the station from DirecTV's channel lineup. This contract dispute that involved DirecTV and Belo would also remove sister station KING-TV from DirecTV in the Seattle market. On November 1, 2011, DirecTV reached an agreement with Belo〔 to continue carrying KGW and KING on DirecTV.〔
On June 13, 2013, the Gannett Company announced that it would acquire Belo. However, since Gannett owns the ''Statesman Journal'' newspaper in Salem – within KGW's viewing area – KGW was instead sold to Sander Media, LLC (owned by former Belo executive Jack Sander), with Gannett operating KGW through joint sales and shared services agreements in order to comply with the FCC's cross-ownership restrictions. The sale was completed on December 23.〔(Gannett Completes Its Acquisition of Belo ), TVNewsCheck, Retrieved 23 December, 2013〕
On June 29, 2015, Gannett's publishing and digital media operations were spun off, with the latter renamed Tegna, Inc. Shortly afterward, Sander Media filed with the FCC to transfer KGW's license to Tegna.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=https://licensing.fcc.gov/cgi-bin/ws.exe/prod/cdbs/forms/prod/cdbsmenu.hts?context=25&appn=101680836&formid=315&fac_num=34874 )
