KPXC-TV is a Denver affiliate of the ION Television network, owned and operated by ION Media Networks (the former Paxson Communications).
[edit] History
KPXC first went on the air on September 10, 1987 as KUBD. Originally, the station aired financial news during the day and various shows at night. When the Financial News Network ended broadcasts in 1989 (after being absorbed by CNBC), it became the original Denver-area affiliate for Univision. In 1997, Univision left KUBD for KCEC, a station that had just taken to the air. Paxson Communications then bought KUBD and re-named it KPXC.
For about two years early in the 2000s, KPXC carried select games of the Colorado Avalanche hockey team.
