American Broadcasting Company
ABC - American Broadcasting Company
The American Broadcasting Company (ABC) operates television and radio networks in the United States. Created in 1943 from the former NBC Blue network, ABC is now owned by The Walt Disney Company. It first broadcasted on television in 1948. Corporate headquarters are in New York, while programming offices are in Burbank, California, adjacent to the Walt Disney Studios and the Walt Disney Company corporate headquarters. The formal name of the operation is American Broadcasting Companies, Inc., and that name appears on copyright notices for its in-house network productions and on all official documents of the company, including paychecks and contracts. A separate entity named ABC Inc., formerly Capital Cities/ABC Inc., is that firm's direct parent company, and that company is owned in turn by Disney.

The network today, in fact, is the last of the Big Three broadcasting networks to use the full name based upon this initialism (after the Columbia Broadcasting System in 1974, and the National Broadcasting Company in 2004). The network is sometimes referred to as the Alphabet Network, due to the letters "ABC" being the first three letters of the Latin alphabet.

CBS - Columbia Broadcasting System
CBS - Columbia Broadcasting System
CBS (formerly an abbreviation for Columbia Broadcasting System, its former legal name) is one of the largest television networks, and formerly one of the largest radio networks, in the United States. One of the pioneer radio networks, from its earliest days CBS established a reputation for quality; prior to the fracturing of the market under cable television, CBS's television network was one of three which dominated broadcasting in the United States.

It is sometimes referred to as the Tiffany Network; the nickname is either a reference to the perceived classiness of CBS programming, or an allusion to some of the first demonstrations of color television, held by CBS in a former Tiffany building in New York City, in 1950. The network was previously owned by the media conglomerate Viacom (itself once a subsidiary of CBS). It and other traditional broadcasting assets became the new CBS Corporation following the split of Viacom at the end of 2005. CBS Corporation and the new Viacom are controlled by Sumner Redstone through National Amusements.

NBC - National Broadcasting Company
NBC - National Broadcasting Company
NBC (formerly an abbreviation for National Broadcasting Company, its former legal name) is an American television and radio network based in New York City's Rockefeller Center. It is sometimes referred to as the Peacock Network due to its stylized peacock logo. The network is now part of the media conglomerate NBC Universal and supplies programming to more than 200 affiliated U.S. stations.

NBC Universal is a unit of General Electric (GE). Formed in 1926 and owned up until 2003 by RCA, control of NBC passed to GE in 1986 following the purchase of the network's original parent. Since this acquisition, the President and CEO of NBC has been Bob Wright.

NBC and rival CBS have both abandoned the name behind their abbreviations; the Peacock Network's corporate name was shrunk from "National Broadcasting Company, Inc." to "NBC Universal, Inc." following the merger with French Vivendi Universal's Entertainment division in 2004. NBC still uses the full name during occasional broadcasts, such as its coverage of the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade.
