About us
KOBI-TV NBC5 was built and put on the air by William B. Smullin in 1953. Mr. Smullin built and put KOTI-TV NBC2 on the air in Klamath Falls in 1956. His daughter, Patricia C. Smullin, has succeeded him as KOBI-TV/NBC5 – KOTI-TV/NBC2’s President. They are the only locally owned TV stations in the Rogue Valley and Klamath Basin. Viewers in 9 counties in Oregon and California receive programming from KOBI-TV/NBC5 – KOTI-TV/NBC2. Both stations hold a number of television “firsts” in their over-50 year history. In Medford, KOBI was the first VHF television station in Oregon. It was the first TV station to offer local color programming, the first station to operate in stereo, the first station to employ electronic news gathering technology, and was the first station with statewide microwave news coverage. KOBI-TV/NBC5 – KOTI-TV/NBC2’s parent company is California Oregon Broadcasting Inc., located in Medford. COBi is the longest, continuously independent broadcast group in the West and one of the three oldest in the country. KOBI and KOTI are NBC Affiliates. Their number one interest is localism!

Since 1990, November has been a month set aside to celebrate American indigenous culture, language, and history, while being mindful of the issues faced by this largely marginalized community. Since 2009, the Friday after Thanksgiving has been established by Congress as Native American Heritage Day. SOU Native American Student Union leader Aiyanna Brown stopped by Sunrise this morning to talk about what the month and day mean to both her, and the native community. https://lnkd.in/djkgpPFJ

“The Wood House” is made from mostly wood. However, it would still be called “The Wood House” if it were made from brick, straw, or any other building material. That’s because it was built by Marvin Sylvester Wood in 1870, on a homestead just north of Eagle Point. Today, it’s maintained by volunteers led by a three family members who share a passion for Southern Oregon history and preservation. One of those family members, Becky Chong, stopped by Sunrise this morning to talk with Natalie Sirna about what makes the Wood House special. https://lnkd.in/gqgJA6rW
