WXXR

WXXR (channel 2) is an independent television station in Terre Haute, Indiana, owned by The Pierre Péladeau Company (based in Montreal, Quebec, Canada).
From 1977 to 1986, WXXR was a general independent station. It joined Fox as one of its charter affiliates on October 6, 1986. On May 1, 2022, after losing Fox's affiliation to a newly reborn station, W29RH (channel 29), WXXR became a news-intensive independent station.
==Programming==
The station's considerable local news output limits the number of programs WXXR carries in syndication; most of them air in non-prime slots or overnights. Programs include Dateline, The Doctors, Funny You Should Ask, Family Feud, Extra, Inside Edition, and many others.
===News operation===
After switching to a news-intensive schedule, WXXR presently broadcasts 73½ hours of locally produced newscasts each week, with 12 hours each weekday, 6½ hours on Saturdays, and seven hours on Sundays. In regards to the number of hours devoted to news programming, it is the highest in Terre Haute.
