What We Do
News 12 Networks is the New York tri-state leader in hyper-local content - providing exclusive news, weather, traffic, and sports to 7 unique local areas, all within the #1 television DMA. While today the 24-hour news cycle is well established, News 12 Long Island was the FIRST local channel to provide around the clock local news, and the first to give Long Island a channel specifically targeted to their local issues. From that same model, 6 additional channels were launched as part of the hyper-local network, in New Jersey, Westchester, the Bronx, Brooklyn, the Hudson Valley (Rockland and Orange Counties), and Connecticut.
