However, Sinclair effectively owns WVAH-TV as the majority of Cunningham's stock is owned by the family of deceased group founder Julian Smith.

WCHS-TV was the second station in Charleston after <a href="/wiki/WKNA-TV" title="WKNA-TV">WKNA-TV</a>, which launched on UHF channel 49 as an ABC affiliate in 1953 but went dark in 1955 due to lack of viewership. Originally a <a href="/wiki/CBS" title="CBS">CBS</a> station sharing ABC with <a href="/wiki/WSAZ-TV" title="WSAZ-TV">WSAZ-TV</a> (channel 3), channel 8 became a full CBS affiliate when <a href="/wiki/WOWK-TV" title="WOWK-TV">WHTN-TV</a> in Huntington signed-on in 1955. During the late-1950s, it was also briefly affiliated with the <a href="/wiki/NTA_Film_Network" title="NTA Film Network">NTA Film Network</a>.<sup id="cite_ref-Boxoffice7_2-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-Boxoffice7-2"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>2<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p><p>In 1958, WCHS-TV swapped affiliations with WHTN and became an ABC affiliate. The WCHS stations were sold to Rollins Telecasting in 1960. The station reversed the swap and went back to CBS in 1962. For reasons that remain unknown, WCHS did not carry the <i><a href="/wiki/CBS_Evening_News" title="CBS Evening News">CBS Evening News</a></i> for several years after returning to CBS. On June 1, 1986, the station swapped affiliations once again with channel 13, now known as <a href="/wiki/WOWK-TV" title="WOWK-TV">WOWK-TV</a>. </p><p>In 1987, Rollins Telecasting merged with Heritage Broadcasting to form <a href="/wiki/Heritage_Media" title="Heritage Media">Heritage Media</a>. In December 1987, the station relocated from its longtime studios on Virginia Street East to their current location on Piedmont Road in Charleston. The company sold off WCHS radio in 1991. Heritage sold all of its remaining broadcasting properties (four television stations, LMAs for two other television stations, and 24 radio stations) to <a href="/wiki/Sinclair_Broadcast_Group" title="Sinclair Broadcast Group">Sinclair Broadcast Group</a> in 1997 just as Heritage itself was being swallowed up by <a href="/wiki/News_Corporation" title="News Corporation">News Corporation</a> (that sale being for Heritage's <a href="/wiki/News_America_Marketing" title="News America Marketing">supermarket marketing operations</a>, rather than for its television stations). None of Heritage's stations thus switched network affiliations. </p><p>Shortly afterwards, in 1998, Sinclair bought out Sullivan Broadcasting, owners of WVAH-TV; as the <a href="/wiki/Federal_Communications_Commission" title="Federal Communications Commission">Federal Communications Commission</a> (FCC) did not permit duopolies at the time, WVAH's license assets were transferred to Glencairn.<sup id="cite_ref-3" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-3"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>3<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> However, Glencairn's stock was almost entirely controlled by the Smith family, owners and founders of Sinclair. In effect, Sinclair now owned both stations. The company further circumvented the rules by entering into a local marketing agreement with WVAH, with WCHS as senior partner. The other station retained its own studios on Mount Vernon Road in <a href="/wiki/Hurricane,_West_Virginia" title="Hurricane, West Virginia">Hurricane</a> along <a href="/wiki/Interstate_64_in_West_Virginia" title="Interstate 64 in West Virginia">I-64</a> even although most of its operations were merged with WCHS. Eventually, WVAH's separate facilities were put up for sale. </p><p>Sinclair tried to merge with Glencairn in 2001 after the FCC decided to allow duopolies but could not purchase WVAH because the FCC does not allow common ownership of two of the four highest-rated stations in a single market. Glencairn changed its name to <a href="/wiki/Cunningham_Broadcasting" title="Cunningham Broadcasting">Cunningham Broadcasting</a> and the local marketing agreement with WCHS continues to this day. There is overwhelming evidence that Glencairn/Cunningham is merely a <a href="/wiki/Shell_corporation" title="Shell corporation">shell corporation</a> used by Sinclair to circumvent FCC ownership rules. </p><p>On February 1, 2021, Sinclair moved the Fox network affiliation from WVAH-TV to WCHS-DT2, although it still markets the signal as "Fox 11" and more formally as "Fox 11, WCHS 8.2". The move followed similar moves of Fox affiliations from Sinclair-managed stations owned by third parties (including, but not limited to, Cunningham Broadcasting) at the beginning of 2021 to subchannels of sister stations owned by Sinclair in the <a href="/wiki/Cedar_Rapids,_Iowa" title="Cedar Rapids, Iowa">Cedar Rapids, Iowa</a>; <a href="/wiki/Columbus,_Ohio" title="Columbus, Ohio">Columbus, Ohio</a>; and <a href="/wiki/Dayton,_Ohio" title="Dayton, Ohio">Dayton, Ohio</a>, markets. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="News_operation">News operation</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=WCHS-TV&action=edit&section=2" title="Edit section: News operation"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <figure class="mw-default-size" typeof="mw:File/Thumb"><a href="/wiki/File:LOGO_WCHS_LOGO_solid_combo_news_vert_blk.png" class="mw-file-description"><img src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/2/2f/LOGO_WCHS_LOGO_solid_combo_news_vert_blk.png/220px-LOGO_WCHS_LOGO_solid_combo_news_vert_blk.png" decoding="async" width="220" height="149" class="mw-file-element" srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/2/2f/LOGO_WCHS_LOGO_solid_combo_news_vert_blk.png/330px-LOGO_WCHS_LOGO_solid_combo_news_vert_blk.png 1.5x, //upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/2/2f/LOGO_WCHS_LOGO_solid_combo_news_vert_blk.png/440px-LOGO_WCHS_LOGO_solid_combo_news_vert_blk.png 2x" data-file-width="3001" data-file-height="2026" /></a><figcaption>WCHS Eyewitness News Logo</figcaption></figure> <p>For most of its history according to <a href="/wiki/Nielsen_ratings" class="mw-redirect" title="Nielsen ratings">Nielsen ratings</a>, WCHS has been a distant runner up to longtime dominant WSAZ-TV. This station and WOWK are usually more competitive in Charleston but WCHS ultimately has higher viewership, however neither is competitive in Huntington, or in the counties of Ohio and Kentucky that are in the market. This is because both stations generally ignore news outside of Charleston. In 2013, however, WCHS opened a small studio and news office in Huntington. WSAZ came in a close second to WCHS for a short period in late 2009–early 2010. This was due to lower lead-in numbers originated by <i><a href="/wiki/The_Jay_Leno_Show" title="The Jay Leno Show">The Jay Leno Show</a></i> and WSAZ has since regained its first place ratings. </p><p>WCHS currently uses the <i><a href="/wiki/Eyewitness_News" title="Eyewitness News">Eyewitness News</a></i> branding for its news operation and produces three newscasts for WCHS-DT2. This includes <i>Eyewitness News This Morning on Fox 11</i> seen for an hour on weekday mornings from 7 until 8. There is also an hour-long nightly prime time broadcast known as <i>Eyewitness News at 10 on Fox 11</i>. For many years, WVAH's 10 p.m. news broadcast was the market's only hour-long late evening newscast. This changed on March 31, 2014, when WSAZ moved their 10 p.m. newscast from MyNetworkTV affiliate WSAZ-DT2 to <a href="/wiki/The_CW" title="The CW">CW</a> affiliate <a href="/wiki/WQCW" title="WQCW">WQCW</a> (channel 30) and expanded the broadcast from a half-hour to a full hour.<sup id="cite_ref-4" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-4"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>4<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Transition_to_local_HD">Transition to local HD</h3><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=WCHS-TV&action=edit&section=3" title="Edit section: Transition to local HD"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>WCHS and WVAH started the switch over to <a href="/wiki/High-definition_television" title="High-definition television">high definition</a> in June 2012 by first installing a new HD Master Control room. In July 2012, the station started to remove the set from the studio that was installed in the late '90s. The old news desk, backdrop, monitors, and the chroma key wall were moved to a small conference room in the station until the transition to HD news was completed. In late July 2012, the new set arrived from Devlin Design Group based out of <a href="/wiki/Crested_Butte,_Colorado" title="Crested Butte, Colorado">Crested Butte, Colorado</a>. During the months of August and September, the new set was installed.
