KTVU (Channel 2) is the Oakland/San Francisco Bay Area's Fox affiliate. Its studio facilities are located in Oakland, California at Jack London Square, and its transmitter is located at Sutro Tower in San Francisco. It has been owned by Cox Enterprises since 1964, making it the largest Fox affiliate through market size not owned and operated by the network. KTVU is also co-owned with KICU which was bought out by Cox in 2000, and as such KICU moved from the original San Jose studios to Oakland where KTVU now shares its studio facilities with KICU.

Programming

Over the years, KTVU aired a schedule of cartoons, off-network sitcoms, old movies, drama shows, talk shows, local news, and religious shows. It was the leading independent station in the San Francisco television market for years. It retained this status when more independents (on UHF) signed on the air over the years by reinventing the station's own image with its former longtime slogan: "There's Only One 2." As a VHF station competitor, KTVU aired The 8 O'Clock Movie as an independent alternative to network prime time programming by KRON, KPIX and KGO-TV.


News

The station has been well known in the Bay Area for its locally-produced news, public affairs and children's programming, especially The Ten O'Clock News, which for years had been the only television news broadcast in the Bay Area at that hour. Throughout the 1980s, 1990s, and 2000s, The Ten O'Clock News was often referred to as the number one prime time newscast in the country, which was true based on the number of viewers at that hour. KTVU's 10 p.m. newscast was such a force to be reckoned with that KBWB cancelled its own 10 p.m. news in 2002 after having no luck competing with KTVU. Prime time is the block of programming on television during the middle of the evening. ... KBWB is an independent television station in San Francisco, California. ... The year 2002 in television involved some significant events. ...


When KRON-TV became an independent station, it also scheduled its new prime time newscast at 9 p.m. so as to not compete directly with KTVU. In the early 1990s, KRON, along with KPIX (throughout the 1990s), did have 10 p.m. newscasts, which have since been moved back up to the 11 p.m. time slot. During the period, KTVU branded its late newscast as The Original Ten O'Clock News. The retirement of KTVU's long-time news director Fred Zehnder brought changes to the newsroom but in 2000 it was ranked as the highest quality local newscast in the nation by the Project for Excellence in Journalism under his immediate successor while maintaining number one ratings at ten and throughout the noon and morning newscasts. Varying prime time numbers and improvements at competitors have since lead to a decline in the once dominant news operation's ratings. KRON-TV (Channel 4) is the MyNetworkTV affiliate for the San Francisco Bay Area. ... KPIX (channel 5) is Viacoms CBS-owned and operated television station based in San Francisco, California. ...


The Ten O'Clock News is also one of the few syndicated local news shows in the United States. It also airs on co-owned KRXI-TV, the Fox affiliate in Reno, Nevada, and also airs on KRVU-LP, the MyNetworkTV affiliate for the Chico/Redding market, and KEMY, the My Network TV affiliate for the Eureka/Arcata market. KRVU and KEMY are not owned by KTVU parent company Cox. Some of the stations also carry KTVU's earlier newscasts and Mornings on 2.

Newscasts

Today, the station has newscasts at noon, 5 p.m. and 6 p.m. as well, in addition its morning and 10 p.m. broadcasts. Before its current station status, Channel 2 had only the 10 o'clock newscast; this was common of most independent-turned Fox affiliates back then to have more syndicated programming and children's programming than it did news. That changed when the station decided to go head-to-head with competitors KRON, KPIX, KGO-TV and KNTV by leaning more towards a news-intensive format which took years to take effect. KGO-TV (ABC7) is an owned-and-operated television station of The Walt Disney Company-owned ABC, based in San Francisco, California. ... KNTV, channel 11, is the NBC Universal owned-and-operated television station in the San Francisco Bay Area market. ...


The noon newscast, originally called 2 at Noon, was added in 1986, displacing syndicated game shows. The original morning newscast, Mornings on 2, debuted in January 1991 in the 7 a.m. to 9 a.m. slot. Now Fox has no network newscasts, but it still motivated its affiliates to air more local news, including KTVU. An additional morning newscast was added in 1996, which would later expand to two hours from one hour, then a 6:00 p.m. newscast would be added in 2000, and finally in 2005, an hour-long 5:00 p.m. newscast. As a result, KTVU now airs 40 hours of local news a week -- the most local news coverage of any counterpart Fox station in the West Coast since KTTV in Los Angeles only has a morning and 10:00 newscast despite being the larger market station. KTTV, channel 11, is an owned-and-operated television station of the News Corporation-owned Fox Broadcasting Company, located in Los Angeles, California. ...


Classic television series

For many years KTVU regularly ran reruns of classic, filmed television series from the 1950s and 1960s. An early favorite on the station was the syndicated Topper series with Leo G. Carroll and Lee Patrick. The 1950s decade refers to the years 1950 to 1959 inclusive. ... The 1960s decade refers to the years from 1960 to 1969, inclusive. ...

Lee Patrick (November 22, 1901 – November 21, 1982) was an American theater and film actress. ...


KTVU frequently showed classic movies, especially week nights from 8 to 10 p.m. and on Sunday afternoons. In the early 1960s KTVU began televising Warner Brothers films, mostly from the 1950s and mostly in color, on Sunday evenings. They were the first Bay Area television station to present such films as A Star Is Born (1954) with Judy Garland and James Mason, East of Eden (1955) with James Dean and Julie Harris, and Rebel Without A Cause with James Dean and Natalie Wood. KTVU exercised discretion and limited commercial interruptions during the movies, and often offered interesting comments, either by a studio host or via slides. The station even televised MGM's Hollywood Revue of 1929 with some of the original two-strip Technicolor sequences. Warner Bros. ...

Children's programming

During the 1960s and 1970s the station aired an afternoon children's show called Captain Satellite. The show's host was Bob March. Bob March was Captain Satellite, a local TV personality that hosted an afternoon TV program on KTVU-2 in Oakland, California. ...


Up until the 1980s, the station produced a series of classic children's public service shorts under the title Bits and Pieces. Bits and Pieces often featured a number of talking puppets, Charley and Humphrey, and were aimed at delivering positive messages to children. Pat Mc Cormick, had brought his puppets from KGO. The shorts often aired during children's programming.Shots of KTVU children's programming appear in the movie Mrs. Doubtfire, portions of which were shot in the KTVU studios and film library. It was also the Bay Area origination of Romper Room, a children's television show which was franchised, instead of syndicated. In 1989, the classic Nickelodeon game show Think Fast was taped here. The show relocated to the newly opened Nickelodeon Studios in Orlando, Florida for the second season, where the set received a makeover. The 1980s refers to the years from 1980 to 1989. ...

Sports

KTVU has been the over-the-air home of the San Francisco Giants since they moved from New York for the 1958 season, and has also been the home of most San Francisco 49ers games since 1994 when Fox won the contract to carry the National Football Conference games.

Affiliation

As a superstation

For a brief time in the early-1980s, KTVU was a nationwide superstation, seen mostly on parent Cox's cable systems. However, unable to compete with WTBS, WGN and WOR, KTVU left the national scene and merely became a regional superstation, seen on cable systems in northern California, Nevada and Oregon. Superstation in United States television can have several meanings. ... WTBS is an American TV station, broadcast on channel 17 (DTV channel 20) in the Atlanta, Georgia metropolitan area. ...

As a Fox affiliate

On October 9, 1986, the station became a charter Fox affiliate serving the Bay Area. It launched a morning newscast called Mornings on 2 in 1990 (and, as such, became the fourth Fox affiliate or station to air weekday morning newscasts). It began to air an afternoon cartoon block known as Fox Kids by 1991. It also added more syndicated talk shows, court shows, and reality shows over the years. It still runs some off-network sitcoms. The station continued to run the Fox Kids block on weekdays until Fox ended weekday kids programming in early 2002, but still retained the Saturday lineup, of which is now 4Kids TV. is the 282nd day of the year (283rd in leap years) in the Gregorian calendar. ...

It has been suggested that The FoxBox be merged into this article or section. ...


Fox branding

In the early years as a Fox affiliate, KTVU still referenced itself as Channel 2 and rarely called itself Fox 2 as other Fox affiliates did and still do, but it has done Fox promos as Fox Channel 2. In recent years since the late 1990s, the Fox logo was encrypted into the longtime Circle Laser 2 logo (used since 1975), and when the network tightened its station standardizations, the station branded itself as KTVU Fox 2 today -- only to revert to KTVU Channel 2 during newscasts. Year 1975 (MCMLXXV) was a common year starting on Wednesday (link will display full calendar) of the Gregorian calendar. ...


Oddities

Generally, from the jumpstart Fox airs relatively few hours of network programming, and KTVU has always aired the entire Fox lineup with no pre-emptions. The exception to the rule is sports programming (Giants) which results in the pre-emptions; in some cases it pre-empts one network-aired NFC football game, but airs the other during the fall. At first KTVU delayed programming to the weekends, but due to viewership demand the station later on aired the delayed primetime block following The Ten O'Clock News. Albeit the Bay Area has been one of many huge Nielsen markets for a long time, Fox was looking to have a network owned and operated station here. Through the network's parent, News Corporation, it tried several times to buy KTVU, but Cox turned down the offer every time. Otherwise, Fox's ownership would have meant that KTVU could not carry Giants baseball anymore if it conflicted with the Fox primetime schedule, and it would have been another generic TV station "clone". The primetime pre-emption has been remedied since, and thanks to a duopoly, KICU airs Fox prime time in place of syndicated shows when KTVU is not able to. Aside from that, Fox has been satisfied with KTVU as it is one of the high-ranking Fox affiliates. Nielsen, a surname originally meaning son of Niels (cf. ... 1211 Avenue of the Americas (Sixth Avenue), where News Corporation is based News Corporation (abbreviated to News Corp) (NYSE: NWS, NYSE: NWSa, ASX: NWS, LSE: NCRA) is one of the worlds largest Media conglomerates. ...

Media Alliance - KTVU's Confirmed No VNR's Aired (275 words)
Documentation supporting the belief that KTVU had aired VNR's included a legal opinion of the California Legislative Counsel and a MultiVision tracking document prepared for state officials.
After receiving more than a hundred faxes due to the action alert, KTVU's news director personally checked their newscasts from the disputed time period and has stated that no VNR's or portions of VNR's were aired.
KTVU further stated that MultiVision tracked coverage of the lunch break issue *after* the government distributed the VNR, rather than tracking the actual airing of the VNR.
