KWBM
KWBM, virtual and UHF digital channel 31, is a Daystar owned-and-operated television station licensed to Harrison, Arkansas and serving the Springfield, Missouri market. KWBM maintains offices located on Enterprise Avenue in southeast Springfield, and its transmitter is located in rural Taney County, just northeast of Forsyth.
==History==
The station first signed on the air on January 26, 2001; it originally served as the market's affiliate of The WB. The station was founded by the Equity Broadcasting Corporation. Prior to the station's sign-on, southwestern Missouri residents could only receive WB network programs on cable and satellite through Chicago-based superstation WGN, which carried WB programming nationally from the network's January 11, 1995 launch; the network was unavailable in the market between the period when WGN dropped WB programming in October 1999〔(WGN Drops WB, Adds Movies, Sitcoms ), ''Multichannel News'', September 20, 1999. Retrieved June 22, 2013 from HighBeam Research.〕〔(Last night Dawson's last ? WGN ceases to air WB programming ), ''The Charleston Gazette'', October 7, 1999. Retrieved June 22, 2013 from HighBeam Research.〕 and KWBM launched. The station formerly operated two low-power translator stations: KBBL-LP (channel 56) in Springfield (which adopted the calls on July 14, 2006; coincidentally, the KBBL calls were used fictionally as the radio station in the fictional town of Springfield on the animated series ''The Simpsons''), and KNJE-LP (channel 58) in Aurora.
On January 24, 2006, the Warner Bros. unit of Time Warner and CBS Corporation announced that the two companies would shut down The WB and UPN and combine the networks' respective programming to create a new "fifth" network called The CW.〔('Gilmore Girls' meet 'Smackdown'; CW Network to combine WB, UPN in CBS-Warner venture beginning in September ), CNNMoney.com, January 24, 2006.〕〔(UPN and WB to Combine, Forming New TV Network ), ''The New York Times'', January 24, 2006.〕 One month later on February 22, 2006, News Corporation announced the launch of a new "sixth" network called MyNetworkTV, which would be operated by Fox Television Stations and its syndication division Twentieth Television.〔(News Corp. Unveils MyNetworkTV ), ''Broadcasting & Cable'', February 22, 2006.〕 The CW affiliation was awarded to low-power UPN affiliate K15CZ (channel 15); KWBM became the market's MyNetworkTV when the network launched on September 5, 2006.
On December 8, 2008, Equity Media Holdings filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection; it then began to sell off its television station properties. KWBM was sold to at auction to religious broadcaster Daystar (through its Word of God Fellowship subsidiary) in early 2009; the MyNetworkTV affiliation later moved to upstart station KRBK (channel 49; now a Fox affiliate) when that station launched on August 1, 2009.
