THE NEWS GAZETTE

The Champaign-Urbana Metropolitan Statistical Area, also known as Champaign-Urbana and known colloquially by some as Chambana, is a metropolitan area in east central Illinois. Composed of three counties (Champaign, Ford, and Piatt), the area had a population of 210,275 at the 2000 census[1] and anchored by the principal cities of Champaign and Urbana. Students at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign are included in this estimate of residents although they are typically discounted from the official city census as they are not permanent residents.

WANDTV

WAND began on June 17, 1953 as WTVP, owned by Prairie Broadcasting Company of Decatur. It is the oldest station in central Illinois, and the state's second-oldest station on the UHF band. Initial hopes of carrying programs from all four networks of the time were dashed, and WTVP had to settle for a primary affiliation with ABC and a secondary affiliations with DuMont. It was one of ABC's first fourteen primary affiliates, and one of the few early ABC affiliates on the UHF band that survived the 1950s.
