WMMG

:For the real-life channel 6 in New Orleans, see on Wikipedia.
WMMG is a TCN-affiliated station licensed to and serving New Orleans, Louisiana. Owned by Confection Broadcasting, WMMG is part of a duopoly with KIGJ-TV, a MyNetworkTV affiliate licensed to Hammond.
== History ==
WMMG signed on the air on March 30, 1949, as the NBC affiliate for New Orleans (and one of the first stations in the city).
Local newscasts came to the station in 1961, with The WMMG Bulletin, which aired at 5 p.m. In 1967, a 10 p.m. newscast was added to the station's schedule, and a 9:45 a.m. newscast, Morning Report, followed in 1972.
Pappas Telecasting bought the station from local businessman Ted Lindsey in 1978. The station began using the SixNBC branding, which had been used until 2021. New Orleans Television Associates bought it a year later.
A 6:30 a.m. newscast, Early Morning Report, was introduced in 1981. This did not last long, however, and ended in 1982; however, the late morning broadcast (expanded to a half-hour, starting at 9:30 a.m., in 1979) remained successful.
In 1998, Dorphene Television bought the station, along with independent station KIGJ-TV. 
In 2002, a morning newscast was re-added, in the 5:30 a.m. slot. This time, due to higher quality and more promotion, it did relatively well in ratings, and expanded to 5 a.m. in 2005 (and to the current 4:30 a.m. slot in 2013). 
In 2006, KIGJ became an affiliate of MyNetworkTV. A year later, WMMG began producing local newscasts for channel 59 under the branding My News, running at 7 a.m., 9 p.m., and midnight. 
In 2015, WNOJ signed on the air as an NBC O&O as well. NBCUniversal allowed WMMG to continue operating as an affiliate of their network, on the condition that they would get half of their yearly money. 
In 2021, Confection Broadcasting acquired the eight stations owned by Dorphene Television. They decided to make channel 6 an affiliate of The Chance Network, so they would be getting all of the money. All newscasts stayed on the air, except for the 5 p.m. show on weekends.
Syndicated programming on WMMG includes Tamron Hall, Jeopardy!, and Wheel of Fortune. As NBC has national programming in the 9 p.m. hour and TCN does not, a simulcast of the KIGJ newscast airs on weekdays; however, syndicated programming takes the slot on weekends.
