As far as I know all that you do is capitalize all the call letters.

Underscoring (underlining) is the same as italicising. The others are basically right – spell it or punctuate it as the channel does itself, it is a corporate “person” and the call letters are its “name”. They are typically capitalised but in any event, follow the channel’s own convention regarding capitalisation, spacing, etc. As the source of a quote or some piece of information, it wouldn’t be amiss to italicise it, as you would in the same context italicise a book/journal title.

You can do it either way as long as it is stated that it is a TV channel. Italics is usually used for names of organizations. Usually it used once when it is first stated, after that you can address it with just a capital letter.

italic is the best, but it depends on you. if you’re doing it for a school project (if you’re in school) it depends on the teacher.

Punctuate it just it appears on the tv. Most use capitalized letters. NO DOTS but you can bold it
