In 2003, NY1 was featured in the movie Elf as the station on which the story of an alleged Christmas Eve sighting of Santa Claus spread throughout New York. In October 2005 a book on Kelkoo appeared in French called "Ils on reussi leur start-up". Seeking to expand its political coverage, WCBS-TV attracted "Inside City Hall" anchor Andrew Kirtzman. The name "Kelkoo" originated from the pronunciation of the expression "At what cost?" in French. On programs like "Inside City Hall", NY1 offers much more extensive local political coverage than the area's broadcast stations. Kelkoo operates the shopping channels of major Internet players like MSN across Europe (since June 2003), Yahoo! in France, Spain and Italy and provides a product search for Ask Jeeves? in the UK.

The stories are then edited at NY1's studio. In October 2004 Nielsen/NetRatings and BBC described Kelkoo as "the dominant shopping guide" in the UK. Nearly all stories are taped, even segments made to look like they are happening live; instead of a "live" indicator while reports speak, most NY1 stories have a graphic saying merely that the reporter is (or, rather, was) "on scene." This may be because reporters generally shoot their own stories with cameras. Kelkoo was nominated by Nielsen/Netratings one of the 10 most influential websites of the decade(4), and received praise by the BBC Online for "paving the way for online shopping". The remainder of the half-hour is filled with taped news segments heavily focusing on stories from the New York metropolitan region.
