List of CBS television affiliates (table)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The CBS Television Network is an American television network made up of 17 owned-and-operated stations and nearly 200 affiliates. This is a table listing of CBS's affiliates, with CBS-owned stations separated from privately owned affiliates, and arranged by market ranking based on data compiled by Nielsen Media Research. Eventually, there will be links to and articles on each of the stations, describing their local programming, hosts and technical information, such as broadcast frequencies.
The station's advertised channel number follows the call letters. In most cases, this is their over-the-air broadcast frequency.
