WJTV, Mississippi's first and oldest broadcast television station, signed on the air January 20, 1953, with the Inauguration Ceremony of President Dwight D. Eisenhower. As Jackson’s #1 local news station sign-on to sign-off for over 60 years, WJTV consistently delivers viewers. We dominate demos in Daytime with programming such as Y&R, Bold & Beautiful, Family Feud, and Dr. Phil, as well as our #1 in the market Midday News. Our Sports line-up such as the Final Four, the Masters, and our Southern favorite, SEC football carry the male demos in the Jackson market, and our weekly sports show "The Sports Zone" is the most watched local sports program in Central Mississippi. In 2013, WJTV launched Mississippi's CW, expanding award-winning programming, extended reach, and new opportunities for central Mississippi advertisers. From the Yazoo and Clinton tornado telethons to “pack the pick-up” food drives for Mississippi Food Network to phone banks serving Mississippi River Flooding victims, WJTV has made a statement that serving the greater Jackson community under the Caring for Mississippi banner will be a long standing initiative at this station. We're more than just a broadcast television station. We serve as multi-marketing consultants by offering multi-platform marketing solutions through web, mobile, and text. Our partnership with Yahoo open a whole new world of interactive participants for our clients, and our new affiliate with LIN Media and LIN Digital offers new and exciting opportunities in the interactive world.
