WICZ-TV
WICZ-TV is the Fox-affiliated television station for the Eastern Twin Tiers of Southern Upstate New York and Northern Pennsylvania. Licensed to Binghamton, it broadcasts a high definition digital signal on VHF channel 8 (or virtual channel 40.1 via PSIP) from a transmitter on Ingraham Hill southwest of downtown. The station can also be seen on Time Warner Cable channel 3 and in HD on digital channel 1206. Owned by the Stainless Broadcasting Company, WICZ is sister to low-powered MyNetworkTV affiliate WBPN-LP and the two outlets share studios on Vestal Parkway East (NY 434) in Vestal.
==History==
The station signed-on November 1, 1957 as WINR-TV, the area's second television station, and aired an analog signal on UHF channel 40. It was an NBC affiliate owned by the Gannett Company (which purchased the station just before its launch) along with WINR-AM 680 and the ''Binghamton Press''. Current owner Stainless Broadcasting acquired the television station in 1971 and changed its call letters to WICZ-TV (named for company owner Henry Guzewicz). In Fall 1995, WICZ announced it would be dropping its NBC affiliation and switch to Fox. At that time, WICZ began preempting much of NBC's programming (especially its daytime soap operas) in favor of Fox Kids shows. The official affiliation switchover took place April 4, 1996 after its contract with the big three network ran out. The NBC affiliation moved Class A station WBGH-CA.
On September 16, 2013, it was announced that Mission Broadcasting would acquire WICZ-TV and WBPN-LP from Stainless Broadcasting. Upon the deal's completion, the stations' operations would have been taken over by Nexstar Broadcasting Group, making them sister stations to WIVT and WBGH-CA. Stainless withdrew the license assignment application on March 18, 2015, following the deal's cancellation.
