WJSJ-CD (channel 51) is a low-power, Class A television station in Tipton, Indiana, United States, which is currently silent. The station is owned by 5GTV LLC.
The station was formerly WIWU-CD, owned by Indiana Wesleyan University, until it was sold to Frank Copsidas in December 2020.[4] As WIWU-CD, it aired local entertainment, sports, and news programming for Marion and Grant County, in addition to airing religious programming from TLN, Cornerstone Television and WHT. The sale came more than a year after Indiana Wesleyan University announced its intention to drop its broadcast operations and focus on digital services.[5]
On January 16, 2025, it was announced that Weigel Broadcasting would acquire WJSJ-CD for $1.6 million, pending approval of the Federal Communications Commission (FCC).[2]
