These media platforms either service the entire city or are cater to a specific neighbourhood or community within Toronto.
American network affiliates on Toronto cable are piped in from Buffalo, New York, including WGRZ (NBC), WIVB-TV (CBS), WKBW-TV (ABC), WUTV (Fox), and WNED-TV (PBS).
In particular, WUTV and WNED rely heavily on viewership from Toronto; both have long identified as serving "Buffalo/Toronto," and also have sales offices in the city.
They are distributed free of charge and have captured a large portion of the neighbourhood advertising flyer market.
Several independent community newspapers include the Town Crier and the Post City Magazines chain of monthly neighbourhood magazines, Beach Metro News, the Annex Gleaner, the Liberty Gleaner, West End Phoenix and the Marklander in the far west of Toronto.
