WBFO is the NPR member station for Buffalo, New York, carrying an almost entirely public news/talk format. It broadcasts from studios in the Lower Terrace section of downtown Buffalo which it shares with WNED-TV and WNED-FM. Previously, it broadcast from the South campus (AKA Main Street Campus) of the University at Buffalo. It currently leases an as-yet unutilized satellite studio in Toronto, Ontario, Canada. Western New York Public Broadcasting Association, which at the time owned an AM station which had the call letters WNED-AM and had been carrying some of the same programming as WBFO, purchased WBFO in July 2011, and incorporated some of the channel's news features and staff into a combined lineup on March 1, 2012, through November 30, 2012 (when the sale of WNED-AM to Crawford Broadcasting was finalized and the call letters changed to WDCZ) which it broadcast on both stations. Most of the programming lost in the merger formerly aired on WNED-AM (although much of that was restored after Talk of the Nation, previously a WBFO exclusive, ended its run). Among the programs eliminated from the old WBFO were the last jazz programs originating from a Buffalo area radio station at that time. In June 2013, jazz programming returned to the Buffalo area with the weekly "Off We Go", a local one-hour program broadcast by local trumpeter Lew Custode at 3 pm Wednesdays on Niagara Falls station, WJJL, while blues has also been added to the format at WGWE.
Video captured by WBFO on June 4, 2020 show two Buffalo police officers shoving a 75-year-old man to the ground during a protest in front of City Hall, causing an injury that left him bleeding from his ear. The two officers have been suspended without pay and a full Internal Affairs investigation has been ordered. The man who was shoved was in serious, but stable condition at ECMC in Buffalo as of Friday morning.
Police say the man was injured when he tripped and fell. However, video from the scene shows the man was pushed by police.

Vertraut geleitet an den fremden Ort, ließ ich manches zurück, und bewegte mich fort.
Ein Stück von dort war ein unbekanntes Ziel, das ich so nicht verfolgte, wie in
einem Spiel waren die Regeln verschwommen, es gab nichts zu bekommen, es gab nichts
zu gewinnen, ich ließ mich einfach spinnen, die Zeit verrinnen und sah mir nur zu,
wie mir Fühler wuchsen, deren Grund warst du. Offen und heimlich, aufrecht und
peinlich war der Zufall geplant, entstand so ein Land, das wir oft verließen, öfter
aufeinander stießen, es bei Ahnungen beließen, die uns neues verhießen, deine
Gedanken, die konnten nicht klärn, wer gewinnt. Unser Traum fand die Worte nicht,
die er verdient, doch fand die Neugier ihren eigenen Lohn, und bahnte sich Wege im
Flüsterton.
Wie alles begann, kommt mir dann und wann in den Sinn,
über tausend Mauern führte doch mein Gang zu dir hin.
Was alles geschah, glänzt wieder wie Gold,
Fortsetzung folgt.
Wir liefen los nebeneinander einen schier endlosen Weg, im Wald der Stille die
Hoffnung gesät und gespäht, worin sich der andre verrät, wohin der Pfad geht, wie
die Prüfung gerät. Kühne Gefühle, tanzten nun auf der Bühne, im Keller der
Zweisamkeit wurde es heller, so hell, dass das Augenlicht schreckte, versteckte
Signale, die ich dir zum Leuchtfeuer erweckte. Verwebte Erwartung gesteigert,
erweitert die Sinne, war uns an der Stelle der Schwelle der Zutritt verweigert, der
Anfang vom Ende das Ende vom Ende und mit ihm die Wende.
Wie alles begann, kommt mir dann und wann in den Sinn,
über tausend Mauern führte doch mein Gang zu dir hin.
Was alles geschah, glänzt wieder wie Gold,
Fortsetzung folgt
Die Sinne, die wurden uns neu geboren, verborgene Dinge verborgen geborgen. Der
Morgen danach war ein Morgen davor, ein Endpunkt wurde zum glänzenden Tor. Die
Eindrücke füllten uns unsere Seelen, verhüllte Gefühle warn nun anzusehen, freizügig
zu stehlen aus unendlichem Schatz - unsre Heimat nahm Platz.
