Programming

Shouldn't it be mentioned the specific programming on this station? Filipino programming includes shows aired on The Filipino Channel such as TV Patrol, which is on weeknights at 6:00pm and Maalaala Mo Kaya Saturdays at 11:00am. Also, the California Music Channel airs at 4:00pm on weekdays. I believe that used to be/is still hosted by KMEL radio personality Chuy Gomez, but I haven't watched that since a few years back. --Geopgeop 02:26, 3 September 2006 (UTC)

History

KTSF began it's first Cantonese nightly news broadcast at 9 pm on February 6, 1989. The broadcast was a half hour long on each weekend. This was the first locally produced Cantonese newscast in the United States. [1] —Preceding unsigned comment added by 75.18.219.138 (talk) 03:23, 10 July 2008 (UTC)

More History

I was a former employee there from 1985 to 1991; KTSF administrative offices were once located at the China Basin Building in San Francisco which was a decade before the first shovel hit the ground for the building of the current Giants ballpark in 1997. The station's offices moved to Brisbane in 1987 (the transmitter was however still atop Mt. San Bruno). I can recall that one of the guests for one of the 'house' Chinese shows on KTSF was Jackie Chan who was a few years from hitting it big in the United Stares. They also offer at the time - religious programming such as Bakker, Swaggart which ran in the mornings before they were disgraced. The Merv Griffin show ran in the afternoons in 1986 and also the station had music videos during the mid-afternoon (The California Music Channel). KTSF also ran NWA wrestling for a year (which later became WCW). The ethnic programming was rather diverse ranging from Portuguese, Italian, and Greek to Indian, Vietnamese, Arabic, Iranian, Chinese, Filipino, Korean and Japanese. The former slogan of the station was KTSF "Your Window To The World." After I left KTSF in 1991 - I actually worked for one of those ethnic shows subcontracted to the station and that's the during time when the Iron Chef TV show made its American debut....

Japanese Programming

KTSF appears to no longer air any Japanese programming on any of their channels. FCI Morning Eye on weekdays and Sunday night TTV have not aired on KTSF's main channel for several years; I believe they switched to one of the subchannels at some point but I cannot confirm when this happened and when it stopped, and according to the website each of the subchannels now carries a different ethnic network. Saturday airings of Fuji TV ceased after March 29, 2014, with a simple graphic stating, "Tonight's programming marks the end of Fuji TV's broadcasting. We wish to thank you for many years of viewership." — Preceding unsigned comment added by 99.157.74.13 (talk) 17:37, 6 April 2014 (UTC)

@Sammi Brie: This article needs a lot of work. Lots of cruft, original research, parts of it being promotional. (Yeah, getting Chinese-language sources can be challenging.) You also may need to talk to @Akandkur: about their edits, here and elsewhere (mainly Bay Area TV articles). Mvcg66b3r (talk) 04:38, 16 November 2023 (UTC)
