WJKA

WJKA is a FOX affiliate serving Wilmington, North Carolina, and it's surrounding areas. Broadcasting on channel 6, WJKA is owned and operated by Berfield/Willis Broadcast Corporation. WJKA is part of a triopoly with YesNet O&O station WCVG (channel 14) and MyNetworkTV affiliated station WMYW (channel 47). WJKA also operates a subchannel: 6.2 (for Seven Network). Following the merger of Oakhurst Broadcasting, Higgins Broadcasting, and Island Television into Adelphia Communications and Adelphia absorbing the remaining stations, Adelphia decided to shift focus on the stations that are in the top 50 DMA market. The remaining stations spun off to their own ownership group named Young Broadcasting, taking it's name from the former company before they merged in Media General. On April 1, 2017, WJKA was sold by Young Broadcasting to Berfield/Willis Broadcast Corporation.
