History
WFOX-TV signed on the air on September 15, 1949 as CBS affiliate WKXZ-TV because WZNX-TV had the CBS affiliate since it aired the same day as Looney Tunes' The Foghorn Leghorn was released in 1948, but WZNX had its ABC affiliate. This station had DuMont as its secondary affiliate, like most stations across the United States. KTLA forced WKXZ to have a Paramount Network, but the station forced it to come to WPDS on Channel 6, before WFBM went on the air. WKXZ loved it when they aired Looney Tunes. Whenever one anchors loved it, he'll see a cartoon at the movie theathre. On New Years Day 1950, both WKXZ and WNBI moved their channel numbers to the UHF spectrum. WNBI moved their's from 4 to 15, as WKXZ-TV moved theirs from 8 to 35. Then, in 1951, WNBI told WKXZ that they saw a chicken hawk on the antenna of the Westfield Broadcasting Center. So, Henery Hawk became the mascot of the NBC station, because they saw it first. In 1956, DuMont was defunct, and that left with WKXZ just being CBS.

On December 31, 1962, the two episodes on Looney Tunes: You were never duckier and The broken leghorn were banned from CBS due to NBC taking away their two cartoons, and airing Looney Tunes, even on NBC Cartoon Theatre. On January 16, 1963, WKXZ lost its CBS affiliate, and was taken by new station WUSA-TV, so that left WKXZ-TV as an independent station, showing Looney Tunes on Saturday Morning (not showing CBS or ABC edits, but some syndicated edits, but only if reducing the scenes.) from 11am until 1pm. Then in 1964, WKXZ had another secondary affiliation called the United Network, which just went in 1964, just for a few months.

In 1969, WKXZ became a member of Krasier Broadcasting with WFLD-TV in Chicago, KBHK in San Fransisco, WKBS in Philidelphia (now defunct), WKBG in Boston (now WLVI), and WKBD in Detroit. In 1971, 20th Century Fox partly owns this station, so the callsigns were changed to WFOX-TV. Then in 1977, all of those stations went to Field Communications. In 1986, WFOX-TV, WKBD, and WFLD would all turn to Fox in the Field Communications broadcasting stations. Then, in 1990, W67BX-D went on the air as WFOX-TV's sister station. WFOX-TV uses the same on-air staff as WLIN-FTV, because that FTV station is a semi-satelite of WFOX-TV, but owned by No Sir Gifts Venues.
