Regarding WB affil, sister WPHL-TV[edit]

For the time being, this station is carrying a secondary affiliation with The WB. This will end when The CW debuts in the fall. Since sister-station WPHLTV will be affiliating with My Network TV, this station's secondary will likely also become MyNet. Right now, the WB programming is only carried in the late-night hours, causing some cable systems in this station's viewing area to import WPHL-TV. This fact has caused an edit war on the WPHL-TV page. Hopefully, adding a few mentions of the "other" station, in passing, to this page will help to cool tensions.

Call Sign Meaning[edit]

"Pennsylvania Movie Time" might have been the original slogan (see this 1985 station ID: ^[1] ) but by the late 1980s (when I was old enough to remember), the station was advertising as "Pride in My Town". See this 1986 station ID: ^[2] 97.102.30.205 (talk) 13:21, 3 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
