New York Nonstop is a 24-hour entertainment-oriented news service broadcasting on a digital television subchannel of WNBC (Channel 4) in New York City. Originally conceived as an all-news rival to the established New York 1 from Time Warner Cable, New York Nonstop provides entertainment and lifestyle features with news updates every 15 minutes.
Both New York Nonstop and WNBC are owned and operated by NBC Universal, Inc., and are based in the GE Building at Rockefeller Center in the New York City borough of Manhattan.
History
On May 7, 2008, NBC Universal announced plans for a major restructuring of WNBC's news department (including moving from Studio 6B To 7E). The centerpiece of the restructuring would be the creation of a 24-hour all-news channel, which would operate on WNBC's second digital subchannel (4.2). Channel 4's current news operations would be revamped and melded into the all-news channel, which serves as a "content center" for the station's various local distribution platforms.
The digital news channel, named New York Nonstop, launched on March 9, 2009. If successful, NBC Universal will use the channel's model as a template for a possible future expansion to its other owned-and-operated (O&O) stations across the United States.
