Current company

Komu 8 & Mid-Missouri Cw

Broadcast Media Production and Distribution · 176 employees · Founded 1953 · Columbia, Missouri, United States

On December 21, 1953, KOMU 8 broadcast its signal for the first time. The station is a full-powered NBC affiliate operating as an independent commercial property. As such, KOMU 8 is the only major network affiliate in the United States that acts as a university-owned commercial television station utilizing its newsroom as a working lab for students. Recognized throughout the broadcast industry as the premiere training ground for television journalists, KOMU 8\'s newsroom creates a real-life lab experience for students attending The University of Missouri prestigious School of Journalism. Students have always been a part of the KOMU 8 experience. The station went on the air as an experiment of sorts, the brainchild of journalism professor Edward C. Lambert. Students served as interns in the early years, but in 1970, that all changed. Students began to fill the roles of reporters, writers, producers, and photographers for all the station\'s newscasts. Those students have gone on to work at the network level, in every state, and around the world. The station is located on Highway 63 just south of Columbia. Our antenna rises 774 feet above the ground sending out a digital signal of 13,600 watts. More than 150 thousand families live in KOMU 8\'s coverage area. KOMU 8 generates all its revenue from advertising with no state funding, and reinvests all surplus cash in continuous development of its educational mission. While KOMU 8 strives to bring the best education to its students, the news station also works to bring Mid-Missouri the best news coverage and has received numerous awards for its on air news coverage.
