Get to Know More About King 5 News

King 5 News history goes way back in November 1948, when the station broadcasted the high school football coverage for the first time and became the only TV network in the Pacific Northwest area to do so. A few months later, a local businessperson, Dorothy Bullitt, purchased the channel and started its custom of quality local transmission. As an idealistic being and a pioneer person in the broadcasting media, Dorothy decided to flip the station’s calls to KING. With the audience’s evolution, King grew up to be the channel with an excellent reputation and started setting the level of standards for the rest of the TV stations in the market.

KING was the original channel in the Northeast to air its color transmission in the area on 1 July 1954. Plus, it was the only service to cover the live, two-continent debate and three-nation speech through Early Bird Satellite service. The channel is currently operating under the name of Tegna Inc., which used to be the part of Gannet Company. Later, Gannet divided its services into two, one turned out to be the newspaper service, and the other one spun out as the TV broadcasting company called Tegna.
