... that more than seven years after it closed for the last time, the planned sale of a Texas TV station was the subject of a lawsuit? Source: https://www.genealogybank.com/newspaper-clippings/television-station-sale-becomes-lawsuit/bvjiyatwnvayczltudpgpiwcbtzzekjr_ip-10-166-46-153_1712464036744

- Comment: One of the toughest TV stations to write ever. Newspaper coverage of programming or regular station activities is virtually nonexistent, and that's with the Midland Reporter-Telegram.

Overall: Sammi Brie My only suggestion for the article is the last sentence of the first paragraph could be expanded with examples. Really impressed you managed to find enough sources for this. John Cummings (talk) 11:07, 9 April 2024 (UTC)

- I wish there were examples. It would help show people actually thought about this station. This was a puny operation. I'm used to dead TVs, but not with this thin coverage. The low power, lack of network programming, and short time on air (especially the first go) did not help. Things like KTVE (Texas) are more typical.
