 WSBK-TV - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
After Viacom's merger with the CBS network, WSBK moved its studios and offices to WBZ-TV's building.
WSBK became a superstation as it was on nearly every cable system in Upstate New York, Connecticut, Rhode Island, New Hampshire, and Maine, as well as the Boston market itself.
WSBK was sold in a group deal with other Storer stations to KKR in 1984.

 The Boston TV Dial: WSBK-TV
WSBK became a UPN affiliate, and by the summer of 1995 all on-air references were to “UPN-38”.

That task became easier once WSBK moved from the Pru to the UHF candelabra in Needham in the early 1970s.

 LEXSEE 37 F
The real thrust of your complaint would appear to be not fairness in the discussion of controversial issues but the elimination of violent TV children's programming because of its effect on children.
George D. Corey, a student at Suffolk Law School, brought this complaint against three Boston television stations -- WBZ, WNAC and WSBK -- charging that the children's programming carried by these stations contains inordinate amounts of violence.
Corey asks that, pending an investigation of these programs, we grant the stations only probationary license renewals, and that we require the stations to comply with the fairness doctrine by agreeing to present announcements warning of the dangers of violence in children's television.

For both the network nonduplication and syndicated exclusivity rules, the local TV broadcast station may demand that the satellite carrier blackout any duplicate carriage of the program (network or syndicated), regardless of whether the local TV station’s signal is carried by the satellite carrier in question.
Therefore, if a local TV broadcast station does not have permission to carry the local game, then no other broadcaster’s signal displaying the game can be shown in the protected local blackout zone.
Syndicated Program Exclusivity Rule allows a local TV broadcast station or syndicator to protect its exclusive distribution rights for syndicated programming against duplicating programming carried on a nationally distributed superstation by a satellite carrier.
