WFTY-DT is one of two TeleFutura network-Owned stations for the New York City market, along with WFUT-DT. Owned by the Univision Broadcast Group, the station is licenced to Smithtown, New York and serves Long Island. WFTY first signed on November 18, 1973 as WSNL-TV, transmitting on channel 67 out of Patchogue. The station was begun on the premise of there being over three million people living on Long Island who got little local television news coverage; with all the network affiliates based in Manhattan, it was rare to see more than one or two news stories a day about Long Island.
