WTVT, FOX channel 13, is a television station in Tampa, Florida. It is an owned and operated station of the Fox Broadcasting Company, a subsidiary of the News Corporation. WTVT's studios are located in Tampa, and its transmitter is located in Riverview, Florida.
WTVT broadcasts a total of 60 hours of local news a week (ten hours on weekdays and five hours each on Saturdays and Sundays), more than any other station in Florida, and the second most in the United States (behind San Francisco MyNetworkTV affiliate KRON-TV (channel 4), whose weekly local newscast output is only a half-hour more than WTVT's); in North America as a whole, only CHCH-TV in Hamilton, Ontario, Canada has more newscasts, with 69 hours each week.
Starting in March 2007, WTVT began upgrading its main studio. The new set debuted on April 23. Some aspects of the set include a 6' by 8' rear projection screen, a new anchor desk, a whole new weather center, and an area for the Lightning Round and a second anchor desk. There are also several plasma televisions behind the main news desk in the newsroom.
