WNYS-TV is a broadcast television station in the Syracuse, New York DMA. An Affiliate with News Corp's MyNetworkTV. It broadcasts on Analog Channel 43. WNYS is owned by the Sinclair Broadcast Group. Its transmitter is located in Otisco, New York. The station was formerly an affiliate of both UPN from 1995 to 2001 and The WB from 2001 to 2006. The WNYS call was originally used for the Syracuse ABC affiliate on Channel 9, between 1962 through 1978.

Channel 43 in Syracuse began on October 7, 1989 as independent station WSNR-TV. The call letters were changed five years later (1994) to its current WNYS-TV. In January 1995, WNYS joined the then-fledging UPN TV network, billing itself as UPN 43, and was the affiliate for eight years, until they switched to The WB in 2001. On September 5, 2006, WNYS affiliated with their third network in the last twelve years, when they joined the new My Network TV.
