WCPO
is considered a pioneer of local live
television. Its call letters were originally
assigned to a Scripps radio station
in Cincinnati to designate its relationship
with The Cincinnati Post. The station
adopted the letters in 1949 when it
went on the air as the company's third
television station. WCPO has received
the Edward R. Murrow Award for Best
Newscast, Best Television Spot News
Reporting in the 1995 Sigma Delta Chi
Awards, and Best of the Best Sweepstakes
Award in the National Association of
Broadcaster's Service to Children's
Award. WCPO went online in August
1996, was the first Cincinnati
entity to have updated news over the
Internet, and the only Cincinnati station which streams and archives all of its newscasts. |
