WAGM-TV is now affiliated solely with CBS, but from its inception until the
'90s it was a primary CBS affiliate that had secondary affiliations with NBC
and ABC.  It was one of only two stations in the country that had that
arrangement.  Cable eliminated the need for it.

WAGM used to carry news actualities from the CBC, too, and may still do it.
I'm not sure.  I don't get up that way very often.  I'm halfway up the
state, and Presque Isle is 5 hours from here!
