WQIH

WQIH, virtual channel 51 (UHF channel 50) is a Cartoon Network-affiliated television station licensed to Hammonton, New Jersey. Its signal covers most of Southern New Jersey (excluding parts of Salem, Cape May, and Central Ocean Counties), Delaware County, Pennsylvania and even parts of the city of Philadelphia with a strong outdoor antenna. (To clarify, its signal doesn't reach into any point in the state of Delaware, just Delaware County, PA.)
Despite its affliation, WQIH is known for pre-empting substantial amounts of the national Cartoon Network feed, particularly for its commitment to local news and events in inland South Jersey (hence the branding LOCAL51 and references to the area it serves in legal IDs). 
In addition, when WQIH is broadcasting Cartoon Network national programming, they have a unique agreement with their owners (AT&T/Warner Media) to black out their regular cable TV channel within the broadcast area of WQIH. That means the majority of Southern New Jersey (excluding Central Ocean, Salem, and Cape May Counties) can't receive the Cartoon Network cable channel EXCEPT in times where WQIH broadcasts local programming. These times are shown below. 
*However, the above agreement does not apply to Delaware County, Pennsylvania (which is another area WQIH serves). So Delaware County, PA viewers can receive Cartoon Network programming from either the national cable feed or via WQIH.

----In 2020 and 2021, WQIH briefly gained attention throughout the U.S.A. when it refused to air a series of LGBT and "anti-racist" promos/PSAs produced by the national Cartoon Network owners. They achieved this by replacing these promos with local advertising (for businesses and restaurants) around Inland South Jersey. This action was supported by most local residents and businesses, but regardless WQIH was flooded with opposition from many other parts of this country. Specifically, it received hundreds of phone calls from places such as Northeastern New Jersey, New York City, Northwestern Oregon, the Boston area of Massachusetts, and Northern Illinois to name a few.
