It currently serves the Tampa Bay Area including Hillsborough, Pinellas, Manatee, Polk, Pasco, Hernando, and Citrus counties. The station, which is exclusive to Bright House Networks customers, broadcasts news 24 hours a day, seven days a week, with the exception of some special programming, including a weekly political program, Political Connections.
The station was originally created for cable service operator Time Warner Cable, which managed the system at the time and now is the main content provider for Bright House Networks, to make local news available continuously throughout this fast-growing region.
