KBNY-LD, virtual channel 19 and UHF digital channel 29, is a low-powered television station licensed to Monterey, California, United States. The station is currently owned by Cocola Broadcasting after a sale from JB Broadcasting in early 2008.

On March 30, 2023, Bridge Media Networks, the parent company of NewsNet and Sports News Highlights (SNH) (backed by 5-hour Energy creator Manoj Bhargava), announced it would acquire the then-KMBY-LD and six other Cocola stations for $3.2 million. [3] Upon completion of the transaction, KMBY-LD will become a NewsNet owned-and-operated station for the Monterey–Salinas DMA.

On July 20, 2023, the station changed its call sign from KMBY-LD to KBNY-LD.
