WKVJ

**Not related to the real life K-Love radio station in Dannemora, New York.
WKVJ is an independent station licensed to serve the Washington, D.C. area. It is owned by Confection Broadcasting.
== History ==
WKVJ signed on the air on April 9, 2000, as an independent station. It aired a general entertainment format, including court shows, sitcoms, and morning cartoons. Additionally, it carried an 8:30 p.m. newscast, branded as 49 Primetime News. 
Originally, the newscast did not feature any weather or sportscasts; however, in 2005, WKVJ entered a deal with AccuWeather, which began providing weather forecasts during the 8:30 p.m. show, as well as in the form of short updates throughout the morning and afternoon. A subchannel airing live NWS radar and NOAA Weather Radio audio was also added. In 2008, the station began producing the forecasts and updates themselves, but continued to use the AccuWeather branding. 
A morning newscast, Great Mornings D.C., debuted in 2012, airing from 6 a.m. to 9 a.m. It currently runs from 4 a.m. to 11 a.m. The 8:30 p.m. newscast moved back to 8 p.m. and expanded to an hour the following year. 
Syndicated programming seen on WKVJ includes Hollywood Scoop, The Six, and You Bet Your Life. Aside from local news, it also produces a public affairs show, Washington This Week, airing Sundays at 7 p.m.
