WKRC-TV, Television station in Cincinnati, United States
WKRC-TV is a television station in Cincinnati, Ohio, broadcasting CBS content over channel 12 and reaching viewers across Ohio, Kentucky and Indiana. The outlet operates production facilities and technical equipment for regional programming and news operations.
Broadcasting began in 1949 as the second television outlet in Cincinnati and received the first FCC license in the region. The station later switched to CBS and expanded its news production over the following decades.
The facility sits in the Queensgate neighborhood and houses production rooms where journalists prepare daily broadcasts for the tri-state audience. Local viewers tune in to follow reports on Ohio high school sports and regional political campaigns during election seasons.
Reception works through over-the-air antenna, cable providers or digital platforms that stream live content to mobile devices and computers. Weather reports and news broadcasts run throughout the day, with some programs also available on regional streaming services.
The Precision Doppler 12 Network pulls data from multiple regional radar sites to combine readings from different altitudes and distances. This setup allows meteorologists to track precipitation patterns and storm fronts with high accuracy across the coverage area.
