First Business - Syndication

Syndication

As of the Fall 2011 season, the program airs daily on more than 100 US broadcast stations and in outlets across 46 foreign countries. The stations include affiliates of ABC, CBS, NBC, Fox, The CW, MyNetworkTV, as well as independent stations. Air times vary, though the timeslot for the show in the majority of markets has been either the 4:00am, 4:30am, or 5:00am timeslots leading into the early morning national newscasts or local morning newscasts. The only requirement the show enforces is that the program must air before the NYSE opening bell at 9:30am ET where possible; in Alaska and Hawaii, it airs after the opening bell due to time zone restrictions, while some Pacific Time Zone stations in the continental United States air it as late as a half-hour after the opening bell. The show is syndicated by MGM Television as part of Weigel and MGM's co-distribution effort of the This TV and Me-TV subchannel networks, and sold by Edward.E. Finch & Company.
