carried on channel 26) to provide WB network programming to the market. ("WRWB" converted into a broadcast service on the DT2 subchannel of ABC affiliate WHAM-TV [channel 13] in November 2006.) On May 25, 2005, Time Warner Cable announced that it would eliminate 30 staff positions from the channel and Syracuse-based sister network News 10 Now in a cost-saving consolidation of its three regional news channels at the time in Upstate New York. News 10 Now and R News's technical production and master control operations were transferred to Albany-based sister channel Capital News 9, which began serving as a hub for all three news channels. (Sister network NY1 continued to maintain separate master control operations at its Manhattan facilities.) With the move, Capital News 9 began serving as the production and studio hub for the news programming of both channels, while News 10 Now began handling production responsibilities for weather forecast segments for all of its sister news channels statewide, using the channel's weather staff. Each of the channels retained their respective news gathering crews, producers, facilities and news management; the channels also simulcast the Albany-produced political review program Capital Tonight. In addition, the cable access channels on the systems in each of the channels' markets began sharing broadcasts of collegiate sporting events in the event that Time Warner Cable could secure the rights to air the telecasts in all of its upstate markets. On August 4, 2009 at 5:00 a.m. Eastern Time, the channel was renamed as YNN Rochester, becoming the second TWC-owned regional news channel to adopt the "YNN" ("Your News Now") brand, after Buffalo-based sister channel YNN Buffalo (which became the pilot service for the new brand when that channel launched on March 25, 2009). The "YNN" brand was later expanded to its sister channels in Syracuse (as YNN Central New York) and Albany (as YNN Capital Region). On December 16, 2013, the channel rebranded as Time Warner Cable News Rochester as part of a branding standardization across the provider's news channels that included the introduction of a new graphics and music package. On September 20, 2016, it was announced that all TWC News channels would be renamed under the Spectrum News brand as a result of Charter Communications' then-recent acquisition of Time Warner Cable. The transition was completed on March 14, 2017, with Time Warner Cable News Rochester being renamed Spectrum News Rochester. Nearly one year
