CW Affiliates In Chicago & Two Other Markets Switch To Nexstar-Owned Stations
The CW has switched three of its affiliation agreements to Nexstar-owned stations, including in Chicago, the No. 3 U.S. TV market.
Nexstar’s ownership of the largest portfolio of CW stations of any local TV player helped motivate the company’s move in 2022 to take a 75% stake in the broadcast network. Under Nexstar’s ownership, The CW has expanded into weekend programming and added live sports, airing LIV Golf and ACC football and basketball. Top-rated syndicated shows like Judge Judy, Seinfeld, Mathis Court with Judge Mathis and The Neighborhood are all continuing on the station and will be supplemented by additional off-net sitcoms as well as a new firstrun game show, The Flip Side with Jaleel White.
