It's our web presence, our live and local news and weather coverage, and our enterprise reporting for all hometowns in Southern Idaho. KMVT (CBS) is the dominant television station in the market and the only full-service News station in Southern Idaho. We also operate KSVT (FOX) and NMVT (CW) television stations in the market.
