KDEN is a full-power television station based in Longmont, Colorado, that operates with 5000 kw of power and owned and operated by NBC Universal, broadcasting on analog channel 25, digital 29, Cable 20. It is affiliated with NBC Universal's spanish-language network, Telemundo.
NBC recently purchased KDEN from Longmont Broadcasting, making it NBC's second owned-and-operated station in Denver, the first in that market since NBC operated KCNC-TV during the late 1980s and early 1990s, and their seventeenth Spanish-language TV station. The company owns Telemundo outlets in most of the top markets, including New York and Los Angeles, and has been eyeing more acquisitions in fast-growing Hispanic markets such as Denver, the 16th largest U.S. Hispanic market.
KDEN is a full-power station and is available on the local cable systems and on EchoStar and DirecTV's satellite services. The station has replaced the company's former Telemundo stations, low power outlets KMAS-LP channel 63 and KSBS-LP channel 67.
As of 2007,under a restructuring plan by its parent company NBC Universal called "NBCU 2.0" the KDEN newscast will originate from the Telemundo News Hub in Dallas, with local Reporting staffs supporting morning and evening broadcast at the KDEN News Bureaus.
