KTNL

KTNL is an NBC affiliate serving Tyler, Texas, and it's surrounding areas, including Longview. Broadcasting on channel 11, KTNL was owned and operated by Young Broadcasting. KTNL also operates two subchannels: 11.2 (for MeTV), 11.3 (for NBC Weather Plus), and 11.4 (for NBC Tyler Nonstop). Following the merger of Oakhurst Broadcasting, Higgins Broadcasting, and Island Television into Adelphia Communications and Adelphia absorbing the remaining stations, Adelphia decided to shift focus on the stations that are in the top 50 DMA market. The remaining stations spun off to their own ownership group named Young Broadcasting, taking it's name from the former company before they merged in Media General. It was sold to Galaxy Broadcasting on July 11, 2016. When it was bought, it removed the Seven Network subchannel and replaced it with MeTV. On April 20, 2017, TEGNA purchased KTNL. In addition to Tegna buying the station, the station added Justice Network to it's fifth digital subchannel.
