Uh, you did you mean to say the other FOUR Bay Area television plants - or for that matter - five or six or seven "plants"?
A quick guide to Bay Area TV in addition to the independent station...
KTVU/Fox 2 - Seven hours of weekday news.
KNTV/NBC 11 Cable 3 - 5 hours of weekday news.
KPIX/CBS 5 - 4.5 hours of weekday news.
KGO/ABC 7 - 4.5 hours of weekday news.
KBWB/WB20 Cable 13 - 2 hours of weekday news.
KBHK/UPN 44 - 1 - 2 hours of weekend morning news produced by KPIX.
Not to mention two spanish stations (KDTV, KSTS) and one chinese station (KTSF).
Some have been around forever, some haven't. But to assume there are only "three other plants" insults all the stations.

Just to get all the facts straight. The bay area is now market #6 (passed by Boston which climbed to #5)
Based on city size market #6 is the San Jose/San Francisco/Oakland market.
Believe it or not the population of San Franisco is only 700,000. San Jose is the third largest city in California with a population of 945,000
So while VJ's may not seem appropriate in a top 5 market, it should be okay for market #6. ;)
