A more complete power analysis would include the big nonlegal
influences, too. WTTW is undoubtedly influenced by the profit-
motivated corporations that sponsor the major shows; and buy
television and radio ad time; and buy magazine and website
advertising space; and rent studio time from its parent WWCI.
WTTW also influences and is influenced by national companies
it helps to run, such as PBS. It is also influenced by the
expectations of donor foundations and local organizations.
WWCI is entrusted with the channel 11 license for five year
terms.
