People ask pointless questions.


 * Not a pointless question, but it is most definitely one that can be answered with a heaping spoonful of common sense. Mike H 15:51, Jul 16, 2004 (UTC)

It is somewhat of a pointless question, because many stations across have branded themselves by their network + over-the-air and/or local cable channel number (or even network/city or region, i.e. Fox Charlotte, CBS Detroit, Wisconsin's WB), and it's more commonplace in today's 500-channel universe. In fact, the Fox stations were the first to brand themselves by the network/channel number format, and it wasn't until UPN and The WB coming along in 1995 that we saw the Big Three networks of ABC, CBS, and NBC using the network/channel number format. Each television station has a certain identity they follow, and KTTV, like many others are simply letting viewers that Fox is on Channel 11, and Channel 11 is Fox. It's simple enough.

On another note, to the person(s) who are currently adding information to this entry, please use better grammar and spelling and have your facts straight when adding information. As someone who spent a lot of time researching information on KTTV, as well as a few other stations on the Los Angeles TV section, I really don't appreicate someone coming in and basically messing up what me and other people who actually care about these subjects actually took time and researched and add quality to these entries.

"Founded 1948" is after first broadcast date of 1949.
