KABB (channel 29) is a television station in San Antonio, Texas, United States, affiliated with the Fox network.
Shortly afterward, KRRT entered into a local marketing agreement (LMA) with KABB after Paramount sold channel 35 to Jet Broadcasting.
[8] However, in October 2013, the San Antonio Express-News reported that Sinclair planned to move WOAI's sales, promotions and executive offices from its downtown San Antonio studios on Navarro Street to a new building adjacent to KABB and KMYS' shared Babcock Road facility; the transition of WOAI employees to the KABB/KMYS complex was finalized in the summer of 2014, with the completion of a shared newsroom on the second floor of the building that accommodates both WOAI and KABB's respective news staffs.
[11] KABB presently broadcasts 27+1⁄3 hours of locally produced newscasts each week (with 5+1⁄3 hours each weekday and 30 minutes each on Saturdays and Sundays); in addition, the station produces the sports highlight program Maximum Sports, which airs on weeknights during the final ten minutes of the 9:00 p.m. newscast and as a standalone half-hour program on Saturdays and Sundays at 9:30 p.m. as well as the lifestyle program Daytime at Nine, which airs weekday mornings at 9:00 a.m. River City Broadcasting started a news department for KABB shortly before the company's merger with the Sinclair Broadcast Group.
On March 20, 1995, the station began producing a half-hour prime time newscast at 9:00 p.m. each weeknight, originally titled The Nine O'Clock News.
On August 3, 2011, KABB became the fourth English-language television station in the San Antonio market to begin broadcasting its local newscasts in high definition.
One month later on September 6, KABB launched an hour-long lifestyle program Daytime @ Nine, as a lead-out of its weekday morning newscast.
[12] Upon Sinclair's purchase of fellow Fox affiliate KSCC in Corpus Christi, KABB's morning block of news from 7 to 10 a.m. began to be simulcast on that station.
