Wnyw-tvWNYW "FOX5" is the flagship TV station of the Fox Broadcasting Company. It is located in New York City and serves the New York Tri-state Area. It was formed in the late 1930s by Allen B. DuMont. In 1944, the station aired with regular continuous programming with the call sign WABD (for Allen B. DuMont). Then, in 1956, after the DuMont Television Network, which operated and owned the station, ceased programming, it was sold to Metropolitan Broadcasting (renamed later Metromedia). In 1986, Rupert Murdoch, after buying 20th Century Fox, purchased the Metromedia television stations, including WNEW. Fox changed the call letters to WNYW. External links
