WOIO CBS 19 channel is associated with CBS. It is working for Cleveland, Ohio, United States. The UHF channel 19 placement in the Cleveland television business date goes back to the 1950s. It was time when The Plain Dealer was given a development membership to develop and to function a new station.
On May 22, 1968, a new license was granted to Community telecasters of Cleveland for development. It was for a new channel with the call letters WOIO CBS TV. In August 1972, a deal was made to auction the development license of Joseph T. Zingale.
In January 1975, United Artists tried to purchase the license and shift WCPO ABC 9 News Cincinnati OH to channel 19. Zingale soon after registered an objection stating that Community Telecasters still owned the development license. In May 1976, the FCC drew back the WOIO CBS license away from Community Telecasters.
It was done during a review board. The crash finally became the reason for the membership to be canceled by the FCC. The history of WOIO CBS is the proof to two groups that fought for license by the Federal Communications Commission (FCC).

In initial 1980, Cleveland-based Malrite Broadcasting Co. contacted the Payne group. WOIO CBS News was about an offer in which Malrite would hold non-controlling, non-voting preferred stock. Malrite’s prime-bond-holders also delivered one-third of the major integrity in the station. The FCC prized the permit and license for channel 19 to the Malrite/Diamond/Metroplex group. In 1983, these were the groups that were doing business as station 19 Inc.
