KXUN-LD is the Univision-affiliated television station in the Fort Smith-Fayetteville, Arkansas television market. Licensed in Fort Smith, the station is owned by Pinnacle Media, and operates its digital signal on UHF channel 43. It shares its Univision affiliation with sister station KWNL-CD, based out of Winslow.
History
At one point, KXUN aired local newscasts; they were produced out of Little Rock, Arkansas, with reports produced in Fort Smith. The newscasts were canceled in June 2008, after then-owner Equity Media Holdings instituted a companywide suspension of news programs.[1]
After failing to find a buyer at a bankruptcy auction,[2] KXUN was sold to Pinnacle Media in August 2009 (after having initially been included in Silver Point Finance's acquisition on June 2 of several Equity stations[3]), with Pinnacle assuming control under a local marketing agreement on August 5.[4]
KXUN was previously seen on KPBI's digital subchannel 34.2; after KPBI was sold to Local TV, LLC and renamed KXNW, the KXUN simulcast was replaced with a simulcast of new sister station KFSM-TV.
