== History ==
It began broadcasting in January 1990 as W08CU, and was an over-the-air music-video outlet.
In the 1990s, WBXE was affiliated with the Video Jukebox Network, which was renamed The Box in 1991. The station's "programming" was basically music videos requested by non-cable viewers in Tupelo.
On September 1, 1995, the station's call letters changed from W08CU to WBXE.
In 2001, WBXE remained a music video station even though it inevitably became an over-the-air MTV 2 affiliate (at the time known as M2, which absorbed The Box that year).
In mid-January 2005, WBXE had switched to an all-informercial format for about two weeks. On February 2, WBXE flipped to Urban America Television, flipping again to its next network, America One, in April 2006.
On June 3, 2010, Flinn Broadcasting purchased WBXE and turned it to an affiliate of The WB. On Apr. 10, 2017, Flinn Broadcasting, along with 4 other companies, merged to form Alltel Communications.
