Nielsen Media Research ranks the 17 county Cleveland-Akron television market as the 17th largest in the United States.[1] Among the stations it includes are:
- WKYC Channel 3 (NBC)
- WEWS Channel 5 (ABC)
- WJW Channel 8 (FOX)

- WVPX Channel 23 (ION)
- WVIZ Channel 25 (PBS)

Television stations from Toledo, Detroit, MI/Windsor, Ontario, Erie, Pennsylvania, and London, ON are available with varying levels of reception, ranging from poor to somewhat watchable, due to their signals propagating across Lake Erie.
In the past, WKYC, WEWS and WJW were carried on cable television in Kingsville and Leamington, Ontario, with WOIO and WUAB being listed in TV Guides in the area, despite their signals not being able to actually reach the Windsor area itself. Since 1998, WOIO has no longer been listed in TV Guides.
On October 20, 2007, Cleveland became the first US city to have all its newscasts broadcast in HDTV. All of Cleveland's television stations broadcast in HD. WJW was the first in December 2004[2], then WKYC joined in May 22, 2006[3], WEWS started on January 7, 2007[4], and WOIO joined on October 20, 2007[5].
