Television stations from Toledo; Detroit, Michigan/Windsor, Ontario; Erie, Pennsylvania; and London, Ontario are available with varying levels of reception, ranging from poor to somewhat watchable, due to their signals propagating across Lake Erie.
In the past, WKYC, WEWS, and WJW were carried on cable television in Kingsville and Leamington, Ontario, with WOIO and WUAB being listed in TV Guides in the area, despite their signals not being able to actually reach the Windsor area itself. Since 1998, WOIO has no longer been listed in TV Guides.
On October 20, 2007, Cleveland became the first city in the United States to have all its commercial television newscasts produced in high-definition. WJW was the first in December 2004[2]; WKYC joined on May 22, 2006[3]; WEWS started on January 7, 2007[4]; and WOIO joined on October 20, 2007[5].
