In the broadcast media production and distribution field, it delivers about 65 hours of local news each week and maintains a strong online presence with millions of pageviews monthly. Its on-air staff and digital teams are active across social platforms, extending the reach of its local news coverage. The organization traces its roots to the 1950 launch of Channel 3 as WSYR-TV in Syracuse, later adopting the WSTM call letters. It has a history of regional broadcasting milestones, including color transmission in 1957, the use of videotape in 1958, all-electronic news gathering in 1973, and stereo sound in 1986. Recent activity includes partnerships and community initiatives in the region, such as the Radiothon for Kids with Upstate Golisano Children's Hospital and collaborations with Galaxy Media.
