WNYX

WNYX is an ABS-affiliated television station serving New York City.

Background information
WNYX is ABS' second American free-to-air terrestrial television station after ABS-KFWD 16, which launched in the Dallas-Fort Worth "Metroplex" (licensed to Irving, TX), Kabushiki Gaisha ABS' main center of operations in the US. WNYX and KFWD both form part of the ABS America network.

ABS 36 markets itself as a "multicultural" broadcaster, as proven by subchannel deals with the NHK, Hunan TV and eNCA (a pan-African rolling news channel), as well as running a simulcast of ABS' flagship station from Tokyo.

Its headquarters are located inside the 3rd floor of the Atlantic Terminal building in Brooklyn, which is shared by a Chuck E. Cheese's family entertainment center (owned by ABS since mid-2016), small regional news offices (although ABS 36 mainly relies on the resources of KFWD and WNBC for newsgathering) and multiple chain retailers that form the 3rd floor of the Atlantic Terminal Mall.

The channel is licensed to serve New York City, however its coverage area is actually much wider: outside of NYC, the network is receivable in Long Island, New Jersey and parts of southwest Connecticut.

Its main newscast is run at 6pm every day, in a tradition set by JOBX-TV since 1987, since followed by all FTA ABS television stations.
