• ... that after switching away from a tied football game, angry phone calls and a bomb threat were received by New Mexico television station KIVA-TV? Source: https://newspaperarchive.com/other-articles-clipping-apr-25-1982-2861713/ and https://newspaperarchive.com/other-articles-clipping-may-14-1983-2861452/ (the Super Bowl claim in #2 does not add up)
  • ALT1: ... that one owner of New Mexico television station KIVA-TV bought it on "bad advice" and wound up purchasing "a license and a building"? Source: https://newspaperarchive.com/other-articles-clipping-apr-25-1982-2861713/

• Comment: A bit of a strange one. I discovered that KOBF (previously a redirect) merited its own page due to its past local history, and Mvcg spun out the relevant material that had been in the KOB page. However, outside of some generic phrases, the content as it stands is practically all-new.

Converted from a redirect by Sammi Brie (talk) and Mvcg66b3r (talk). Nominated by Sammi Brie (talk) at 07:34, 5 December 2021 (UTC).

QPQ: Done.

Overall: Looks good to go on a first read-through, and greatly prefer the ALT0 hook over the ALT1. I think this is also eligible as an expanded content fork anyway. SounderBruce 09:54, 7 December 2021 (UTC)
