KACA

KACA is the ABC affiliate licensed to serve the Arch City metropolitan area. It is owned by Metro Broadcasting Inc. 
== History ==
KACA signed on the air on January 9, 1984. At the time owned by the Meredith Corporation, it was instantly successful in the market, as Arch City had not yet had an ABC affiliate. The station began a news operation in 1986; World News This Morning anchors Steve Bell and Kathleen Sullivan were hired to anchor the nightly newscasts.
Also in 1986, the station began airing The Oprah Winfrey Show, which went on to be hugely successful. Phil Donahue's talk show, which previously aired in the 4 p.m. slot occupied by Oprah, was relegated to the 12:30 a.m. graveyard slot; KACA dropped the show outright in 1990. 
In 1998, Meredith Corporation sold the station to Toledo, Ohio-based Traverse Communications. When the company dissolved in 2001, current owner Confection Broadcasting bought the station. New weekend morning newscasts were added.
On June 19, 2004, KACA's signal was hijacked by Murphy Dickson, a 27-year-old ice cream truck driver from Canterbury, a suburb of Arch City. An ABC Kids airing of Fillmore! was interrupted with scrolling text that read:HELLO CITIZENS OF ARCH CITYDO NOT BE AFRAIDEMBRACE THE CHANGES AS THEY COMEYOU WILL KNOW MORE EVENTUALLYSUBJECT 775SIGNING OFFThe signal returned to regularly scheduled programming after the message had appeared three times. Dickson fled the city and was never found. It is unknown why he hijacked the signal, how, what he was referring to, or what "Subject 775" means. Confection Broadcasting apologized for the incident, saying they were working with officials to find the cause of the mysterious interruption.
Currently, syndicated programming on KACA includes Judge Judy, The Kelly Clarkson Show, and weekend reruns of Monk. 
In 2021, as Confection Broadcasting was dissolving, it sold KACA and two others to North Fort Myers, Florida-based Kyle Broadcasting. 
In 2024, Metro Broadcasting bought KACA from Kyle Broadcasting.
