History

WMSN began as an independent station before becoming affiliated with the FOX network. WKOW Television, Inc. manages and directs FOX 47 News at Nine.

WMSN is located on Big Sky Drive, the site of the former Big Sky Drive-In Theater. For several years, WMSN has broadcast "Big Sky Theater" on Saturday nights, featuring classic movies, mostly westerns, from the drive-in era.

Sinclair and FOX recently finalized a six-year affiliation contract extension for Sinclair's 19 FOX affiliates, including WMSN. WMSN's affiliation contract now expires in March 2012. [1]

WMSN is a station that still signs off at night, doing so at 2:05 am Monday morning and returning to the air at 5:00 am.
