Broadcast Schedule
KNX features CBS News at the top of each hour. Traffic and weather reports are presented together every ten minutes on the "fives", (:05, :15, :25, :35, :45, :55). Business news from the station is at :10 and :40 past the hour and sports is featured at :20 and :50 past the hour; this format clock differs slightly from most other CBS all-news stations (for example, on WCBS and the other stations, traffic and weather are together on the "eights" (:08, :18, :28, etc.); KNX, WINS, who does traffic every ten minutes "on the ones" (:01, :11, etc.) and weather every twenty minutes beginning at :12 past the hour, and KYW, who does "Traffic and transit on the twos" (:02, :12, etc.) every ten minutes and AccuWeather regional forecasts at :07, :14, :37, and :44 after every hour, are several exceptions to CBS's standard format. In addition to stories from their own correspondents, the audio portion of selected reports and weather forecasts from sister television stations KCBS-TV and KCAL-TV are heard on KNX.
The KNX Business Hour airs at 1 p.m. weekdays summarizing the latest in business news after the close of the stock market. On weekends, Food News with Melinda Lee airs at 10 a.m., which despite its name is actually a cooking talk show. The CBS News Weekend Roundup and 60 Minutes also interrupt the all news schedule.
