News 12 Networks
The News 12 Networks are a group of American regional cable news television channels that are owned by the Newsday Media Holdings subsidiary of the Cablevision Systems Corporation. Each of the seven channels provide local news coverage 24-hours a day, focusing on different regions of the New York City metropolitan area outside of Manhattan, Staten Island and Queens.
The networks are carried by Cablevision's systems throughout the region (except for certain systems in Dutchess, Orange, Putnam counties in New York, and Litchfield county in Connecticut) and are also available on most Time Warner Cable, Service Electric and Comcast systems in the Tri-State area. However, none of the channels are available on Verizon FiOS, DirecTV or Dish Network (this is referenced in the slogan used by the networks, "Only on cable. Never on FiOS. Never on satellite."). Although the seven channels have individual and unique news operations, they share the same mission, as well as identical graphics and music packages.
