NorthWest Cable News is a regional 24-hour television news network based in Seattle, Washington.
The service is owned by Belo Corp., and operates out of the KING-TV building in Downtown Seattle.
NWCN covers news in Washington, Oregon and Idaho. It is available to 2.9 million cable users in those principal states, and, to a lesser degree, California, Alaska, and Montana.
The network uses material from co-owned stations KING, KGW in Portland, Oregon, KTVB in Boise, Idaho and KREM in Spokane, Washington. Content-sharing agreements are in place with several other stations.
The network features news and weather programming throughout the day, plus NorthWest Sports Tonight each evening, and Gardening with Ciscoe each Friday. The network re-airs Evening Magazine from sister-station KING each evening. In addition, Up Front with Robert Mak and Northwest Backroads re-air each weekend.

Some of the network's programming airs on the 24/7 Cable Channel in Boise, a division of sister KTVB.
