History

WBRC began operation on July 1, 1949 on channel 4 as an NBC affiliate. The station also carried secondary affiliations with ABC (shared with WAPI-TV, now WVTM-TV) and DuMont.^[1] It was owned by Eloise D. Hanna along with WBRC-AM 960. The station's call letters stand for Bell Radio Company, after J.C. Bell, WBRC-AM's first owner. is the 182nd day of the year (183rd in leap years) in the Gregorian calendar. ...

The American Broadcasting Company (ABC) operates television and radio networks in the United States and is also shown on basic cable in Canada. ... WVTM-TV is the NBC affiliate station in the Birmingham-Anniston-Tuscaloosa, Alabama television market. ... The DuMont Television Network was the worlds first commercial television network, beginning operation in the United States in 1946. ...

It moved to channel 6 in 1953 to guard against signal interference with WSMV in Nashville, which is north of Birmingham. Later that year, Ms. Hanna sold the station to Storer Broadcasting. WBRC became a dual CBS/ABC affiliate in 1954. In the same year, WBRC-AM-FM-TV moved to a new studio built by Storer, where channel 6 remains today. The studio, like many of those built by Storer, resembled an antebellum mansion. In 1957, Storer sold WBRC to Taft Broadcasting of Cincinnati.

In 1961, WBRC took the ABC affiliation full time, leaving WAPI to share CBS and NBC. This was very unusual for a market with only two commercial stations. Usually, one or both stations carried ABC as a secondary affiliation. ABC would not be on anything resembling an equal footing with CBS and NBC until the 1970s. However, Taft had very good relations with ABC. Most of Taft's TV stations were ABC affiliates, including its flagship station, WKRC-TV in Cincinnati, which was one of ABC's strongest affiliates. Also, Taft's chairman was a personal friend of ABC president Leonard Goldenson. Local 12, WKRC-TV is the CBS affiliate serving Cincinnati, Ohio. ... Leonard H. Goldenson (December 7, 1905 - December 27, 1999) was the first president of ABC. In 1974, Mr. ...

Another factor, though not as important as the Taft-Goldenson relationship, was CBS News' apparent strong support of the Civil Rights Movement, which didn't sit well with a large segment of WBRC's audience. ABC had very few full-time affiliates south of Washington, D.C. at the time, but now had the full benefit of one of the South's strongest signals and biggest coverage areas. Nonetheless, WBRC would not clear the network's news programming until 1972, and pre-empted a large amount of other network shows over the years as well. Also in 1972, Taft sold WBRC-AM-FM; the AM station is now WERC while the FM station is now WBPT. Historically, various popular movements struggling for social justice and democratic rights since the Second World War were known as civil rights movement, most famously the American civil rights movement of the 1950s and 1960s, which struggled for equal rights for African-Americans. ...

WBPT is a classic hits FM radio station licensed to Homewood, Alabama that serves Birmingham and central Alabama. ...

WBRC was one of ABC's strongest affiliates over the years. For a time, it lodged the ABC dot logo inside its own "6" logo (just as it had done with the CBS eye in the 1950s).

In late 1987, Taft was restructured into Great American Broadcasting after a hostile takeover. In December 1993 Great American Broadcasting was restructured after filing for Chapter 11 bankruptcy and became known as Citicasters. The 6 logo very similar to WRTV's 6 logo with the exception of the logo is gold. Year 1987 (MCMLXXXVII) was a common year starting on Thursday (link displays 1987 Gregorian calendar). ...

In the early spring of 1994, Citicasters agreed to sell four stations to New World Communications. Besides WBRC, the stations were: New World Pictures logo from the late 1980s; New Worlds other divisions used similar logos New World Communications was a major television production company and television station owner in the United States from the late 1980s to the mid-1990s. ...

A month before though, New World agreed to buy four stations owned by Argyle Communications, including Birmingham's WVTM. Federal Communications Commission rules at the time dictated that one company could not own two stations in the same market. In addition, the acquisitions put New World two television stations over the FCC-mandated 12-station limit in effect at the time. As a result, New World decided to opt to place WBRC and WGHP in a trust for sale to another company and keep WVTM. WDAF 4 is the Fox owned & operated television station in the Kansas City market. ...

In May 1994, New World agreed to affiliate all of their stations with Fox except for WVTM and KNSD in San Diego which remained affiliated with NBC; these were subsequently purchased by that network. At that same time, it was determined that WBRC and WGHP would be sold to Fox, but put in a trust until Fox could close on those stations. Fox assumed control of WBRC and WGHP in the summer of 1995 through local marketing agreements. Both stations officially became Fox-owned stations in January 1996. Since WBRC's affiliation agreement with ABC did not expire until September 1996, Fox had to maintain ABC affiliation on WBRC for over a year. This also gave ABC time to find another affiliate to serve central Alabama. KNSD is the NBC television station based in San Diego, California. ... â€œSan Diegoâ€ redirects here. ...

WBRC was originally going to run Fox Kids in the 1 to 4 pm slot, but once it was determined that soon to be former Fox affiliate WTTO would be left an independent, it opted to let WTTO keep the Fox Kids programming. So as a Fox affiliate, WBRC has aired only the prime-time and weekend sports programming of the Fox network. Even in 2000 when WTTO dropped Fox Kids, WBRC still did not pick it up. Today Fox only offers a Saturday Morning kids lineup; WBRC still refuses clearance.

Since the affiliation switch, the station has been known as "FOX6". It has gained the reputation of having one of the nation's highest-rated primetime newscasts: "FOX6 News at 9:00". It also airs 43 hours of locally produced news programming per week, the most in the market. It also has been the traditional leader in the market for the past few decades.

Soon thereafter, it ceased production and broadcasting of local segments of the United Cerebral Palsy Telethon, which had it roots with the station. WBRC was the first station to broadcast the telethon starting back in the 1940s. National celebrities would fly in to be on this telethon and it was from there that it moved to national prominence. Even in it waning moments at WBRC, the UCP Telethon would air locally produced mini-documentaries from WBRC (Producers Randy Mize / Tom Stovall).

WBRC is one of only a few stations in the country to have had primary affiilations with all three of the historical networks, and one of only two in the country (the other being KEVN-TV in Rapid City, South Dakota) to have had primary affiliations with all four current major networks. The station is also one of the first Fox O&O's to launch a website with the MyFox interface, which features video, more detailed news, and a consistent interface that will launch across all Fox O&O station websites in the next few months.
