WPLQ

== Station History ==
WPLQ signed on the air back on May 13, 1984 and signed on originally as an independent. It remained as an Independent for merely 2 years until 1986 when the newly formed FOX Network signed on. WPLQ then switched affiliations to be with the FOX Network and remained as a FOX affiliate for nearly 30 years until late 2014 when the fictional tv stations realignment occurred. WPLQ switched affiliations for a second time with WIYR to become Chiefland's ABC affiliate. WPLQ has since remained with ABC as of January 2015. On May 27, 2016, Raycom Media announced they would purchase WPLQ from Media General. The sale was completed on November 20, 2016.
