KTTV

KTTV (channel 11) is a television station in Los Angeles, California, United States. It is the West Coast flagship station of the Fox television network, owned and operated through its Fox Television Stations division. Under common ownership with KCOP-TV (channel 13), the two stations share studios at the Fox Television Center on South Bundy Drive in West Los Angeles; KTTV's transmitter is located atop Mount Wilson.

==History== ===Early years (1947–1954)=== KTTV's origins can be traced to 1947, when the station's license and construction permit was secured by the Times Mirror Company, publishers of the Los Angeles Times. It was one of five licenses that were granted simultaneously by the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) to parties interested in expanding commercial television in Los Angeles. In 1948, CBS, which owned KNX radio, purchased a 49% interest in the station and assisted in completing its construction in exchange for making channel 11 the network's Los Angeles television outlet. KTTV began operations on January 1, 1949, and was operated initially by KTTV, Incorporated, the Times/CBS-owned holding company. The station's first telecast was the Tournament of Roses Parade, which channel 11 would air every New Year's Day until 1995.
