KIGJ-TV

KIGJ is a MyNetworkTV-affiliated station licensed to Hammond, Louisiana and serving the New Orleans market. It is owned by Confection Broadcasting as part of a duopoly with WMMG, licensed to New Orleans proper.
== History ==
KIGJ-TV was signed on in late-July 1991 by New Orleans Television Associates, the company that also owned WMMG. In 1998, it was purchased by Dorphene Television, alongside WMMG. Until 2006, the station strictly broadcast brokered as well as syndicated programs, filling the unused slots with advertising or infomercials. The station joined MyNetworkTV at its debut, including many brokered or syndicated programs from before it joined.
In 2007, WMMG began producing My News for KIGJ. The newscasts aired for an hour at 7 a.m. and 9 p.m., with another half-hour at midnight. 
In October 2021, Confection Broadcasting acquired the eight stations owned by Dorphene. WMMG would become a TCN affiliate. KIGJ and all other former Dorphene stations will not be affected by the change.
Syndicated programming on KIGJ includes Storage Wars, Rachael Ray, and S.W.A.T. In the event of breaking news coverage on WMMG, regular programming will "flip over" to KIGJ-TV.
