Background
WPXN-TV was a PBS affiliate located in New York City, New York, as WNYC-TV. Borrowing its name from the radio station of the same name, the station went on the air on November 5, 1961 and served as an NET affiliate until 1970. In 1995, the city decided to sell the station. Then in 1996, the station became independent, now owned by the Dow Jones company and ITT; taking on a hybrid format of sporting events and business news under the name of "S+", with the WNYC-TV call letter changed to WBIS-TV. This format failed, and the station was sold to Paxson Communications in 1998 (renaming it again as the current WPXN-TV); it became the flagship of the family-friendly Pax TV, which became Independent Television from 2005-2007 and Ion Television post-January 29, 2007.
