Editing Yule log (section)

=== United States ===
In the [[United States]], a local New York television station first broadcast a six-minute loop of a yule log burning in a fireplace over the course of several hours. The broadcast, called simply ''Yule Log'', premiered in full color on Dec. 24, 1966, at 9:30&nbsp;p.m. on [[WPIX]] (Channel 11 in [[New York City]]) and became a yearly tradition. The original ''Yule Log'' footage was filmed on 16 millimeter film at Gracie Mansion, New York City's mayoral residence. New footage of a flaming yule log was shot in 1970, in a different location, producing a seven-minute loop on 35 millimeter film. The station still broadcasts the ''Yule Log'' for four to five hours every Christmas morning and, through the years, has had many imitators at television stations across the country.<ref>{{cite web|work=[[PIX11]]|title=LOCAL NEWS: Celebrate Christmas with the iconic WPIX Yule Log|first=Lauren|last=Cook|date=December 23, 2021|url=https://pix11.com/news/local-news/celebrate-christmas-with-the-iconic-wpix-yule-log-2021|access-date=December 2, 2022}}</ref> In 2024, [[Roku, Inc.]] launched a 24-hour Yule log [[FAST channel]] on their [[Roku|streaming players]] through [[The Roku Channel]].<ref>{{cite web | url=https://www.roku.com/whats-on/movies/roku-yule-log-channel?id=80bf5fba08f6f9b64390032175c12ff2&srsltid=AfmBOoqriI63OzhopEPEZ-Tjf_s3R_uYrXdPLKXZb3KYNO10P0L9m_hC | title=Roku }}</ref>
