The state of [[New York (state)|New York]] uses the [[Eastern Time Zone]] ([[UTC-05:00]]) with [[daylight saving time]] ([[UTC-04:00]]). Because its largest city, [[New York City]], is the largest city in the [[United States]], and because the Eastern Time Zone is used in the nation's capital, [[Washington, D.C.]], in addition to the fact that a plurality of the nation's population is in that time zone, Eastern Time is the most commonly used time zone for television scheduling. Therefore, if a program airs at 7:00 PM Eastern Time, the network will usually advertise it by saying "Tonight at 7, 6 Central", or just "Tonight at 7".
The state of [[New York (state)|New York]] uses the [[Eastern Time Zone]] ([[UTC-05:00]]) with [[daylight saving time]] ([[UTC-04:00]]).
