JOMX (Johnsonverse)

JOMX, virtual channel 14 (UHF digital channel 16), is a CW-affiliated television station licensed to Chiyoda, Kanto, United States, and serving the Tokyo metropolitan area. The station is the second-largest directly owned property of the Irving, Texas–based Nexstar Media Group. It is the third-largest CW affiliate by market size that is not owned and operated by the network's co-owner, Paramount Global (the largest being sister station WPIX in New York City, and the second-largest being sister station KTLA in Los Angeles).
As JOKB, channel 14 was one of the UHF stations built by Kaiser Broadcasting and later sold to Field Communications. It was acquired by Gannett in 1983; sold to the Tokyo Metropolitan Television Broadcasting Corporation in 1993, assuming its current callsign; and was one of the launch affiliate stations for the WB network in 1995. The station has been under Tribune/Nexstar ownership since 2001 and part of The CW since its 2006 launch. The station was one of the first UHF stations to explicitly market its cable channel position (channel 9 on most Tokyo cable systems) back to the early 1980s on an equal level with its over-the-air channel.
