The "C" in the logo is for Sinclair Broadcast Group's forerunner, Chesapeake Television.</figcaption></figure> <p>Despite its financial troubles, WBFF became profitable enough that Julian Smith decided to expand his broadcast interests. Through a Chesapeake Television subsidiary, Commercial Radio Institute, Smith launched a new independent station in <a href="/wiki/Pittsburgh" title="Pittsburgh">Pittsburgh</a>, WPTT (now <a href="/wiki/WPNT" title="WPNT">WPNT</a>), in 1978. In 1984, Commercial Radio Institute signed on Smith's third station, independent <a href="/wiki/WTTE" title="WTTE">WTTE</a> in <a href="/wiki/Columbus,_Ohio" title="Columbus, Ohio">Columbus, Ohio</a>. That same year, WBFF received local competition again when WNUV-TV, then a two-year-old <a href="/wiki/Subscription_television" class="mw-redirect" title="Subscription television">subscription television</a> outlet, began to adopt a general entertainment schedule during the daytime and full-time by 1986. </p><p>In 1985, Julian Smith merged his three stations into the Sinclair Broadcast Group, and around this time one of his sons, <a href="/wiki/David_D._Smith" title="David D. Smith">David D. Smith</a>, took a prominent role in the operations of the three stations. In 1986, Sinclair agreed to affiliate WBFF and WTTE with the fledgling <a href="/wiki/Fox_Broadcasting_Company" title="Fox Broadcasting Company">Fox Broadcasting Company</a>, which debuted on October 9 of that year. The growth and rise of Fox coincided with that of Sinclair Broadcast Group, which expanded its reach beyond Baltimore, Columbus and Pittsburgh during the 1990s. </p><p>In June 1991, Sinclair opened up the station's news department with Baltimore's first 10 p.m. newscast co-anchored by Lisa Willis (formerly of <a href="/wiki/WWOR-TV" title="WWOR-TV">WWOR-TV</a> in <a href="/wiki/Secaucus,_New_Jersey" title="Secaucus, New Jersey">Secaucus, New Jersey</a>) and Jeff Barnd. Then, in September, Sinclair took the bold step of challenging WMAR-TV's pending license renewal and filing its own competing application for a new station. As WMAR-TV had been sold the previous June to the <a href="/wiki/E._W._Scripps_Company" title="E. W. Scripps Company">E. W. Scripps Company</a>, Sinclair argued that an out-of-town corporation could not effectively serve the city's public interest and the valuable channel allocation—a channel 2 analog signal traveled a very long distance under normal conditions—should be granted to an established local broadcaster instead. The gambit did not work, and WMAR-TV remained on channel 2.<sup id="cite_ref-WMAR2_7-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-WMAR2-7"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>7<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p><p>WBFF nearly lost its Fox affiliation in 1994 when Fox entered talks with WJZ-TV, but it opted to affiliate with <a href="/wiki/CBS" title="CBS">CBS</a> instead.<sup id="cite_ref-8" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-8"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>8<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> <a href="/wiki/WBAL-TV" title="WBAL-TV">WBAL-TV</a> was also considered after the station dropped CBS, but opted to affiliate with <a href="/wiki/NBC" title="NBC">NBC</a> instead.<sup id="cite_ref-9" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-9"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>9<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p><p>In <a href="/wiki/1996_Baltimore_Ravens_season" title="1996 Baltimore Ravens season">1996</a>, Channel 45 began airing <a href="/wiki/Baltimore_Ravens" title="Baltimore Ravens">Baltimore Ravens</a> games via the <a href="/wiki/NFL_on_Fox" title="NFL on Fox">NFL on Fox</a>; the station is given at least two games a season to air (usually when the team plays host to an <a href="/wiki/National_Football_Conference" title="National Football Conference">NFC</a> team at <a href="/wiki/M%26T_Bank_Stadium" title="M&T Bank Stadium">M&T Bank Stadium</a>); starting in <a href="/wiki/2014_NFL_season" title="2014 NFL season">2014</a>, when the NFL instituted its new 'cross-flex' broadcast rules, games can be arbitrarily moved from WJZ-TV to WBFF.

As <a href="/wiki/Duopoly_(broadcasting)" title="Duopoly (broadcasting)">duopolies</a> were not allowed at the time, channel 54 was spun off to Glencairn Ltd., a company owned by former Sinclair executive Edwin Edwards. However, Glencairn's stock was almost entirely owned by the Smith family. In effect, Sinclair now had a duopoly in Baltimore—and had emasculated its major rival in its hometown. Sinclair further circumvented the rules by taking over WNUV's operations under a <a href="/wiki/Local_marketing_agreement" title="Local marketing agreement">local marketing agreement</a> (LMA), with WBFF as senior partner. </p><p>Sinclair tried to buy Glencairn outright in 2001, but was unable to buy WNUV due to the FCC's rules on duopolies. Despite its relatively large size, the Baltimore market has only seven full-power stations (or six, if two stations licensed in the market that are operated by <a href="/wiki/Maryland_Public_Television" title="Maryland Public Television">Maryland Public Television</a> are treated as one)—two fewer than what FCC regulations allow to legally permit a duopoly (the FCC requires a market to have eight unique station owners once a duopoly is formed, effectively limiting duopolies to markets with at least nine full-power stations). Glencairn changed its name to <a href="/wiki/Cunningham_Broadcasting" title="Cunningham Broadcasting">Cunningham Broadcasting</a> and retained ownership of WNUV. However, nearly all of Cunningham's stock is held in trusts owned by the Smiths. This <i><a href="/wiki/De_facto" title="De facto">de facto</a></i> duopoly continues to this day, while the close relationship between Sinclair and Glencairn/Cunningham has led to claims that Cunningham is merely a <a href="/wiki/Corporate_shell" class="mw-redirect" title="Corporate shell">corporate shell</a> that Sinclair uses in order to evade FCC ownership restrictions. </p><p>While WBFF entered the new century thriving as both locally and as a Fox affiliate, its network partner threatened the station's immediate future. In 2001, Fox's parent company, the <a href="/wiki/News_Corporation" title="News Corporation">News Corporation</a>, became the new owner of Baltimore's <a href="/wiki/UPN" title="UPN">UPN</a> affiliate <a href="/wiki/WUTB" title="WUTB">WUTB</a> (the former WMET-TV) through its purchase of most of <a href="/wiki/Chris-Craft_Industries" title="Chris-Craft Industries">Chris-Craft Industries</a>' television holdings. Rumors abounded that Fox was considering moving its programming from WBFF to WUTB. In a move made clearly to protect its home interests, Sinclair persuaded Fox to sign a long-term contract to keep WBFF with the network. The same threat re-emerged in January 2006, when UPN owner <a href="/wiki/CBS_Corporation" title="CBS Corporation">CBS Corporation</a> and <a href="/wiki/WarnerMedia" title="WarnerMedia">Time Warner</a>, owners of <a href="/wiki/The_WB_Television_Network" class="mw-redirect" title="The WB Television Network">The WB Television Network</a>, announced that those two networks would be shut down and replaced by the new <a href="/wiki/CW_Television_Network" class="mw-redirect" title="CW Television Network">CW Television Network</a>. However, a month after The CW's formation, News Corporation announced that WUTB and its other UPN affiliates would become the nuclei of its new <a href="/wiki/MyNetworkTV" title="MyNetworkTV">MyNetworkTV</a> service. </p><p>On May 1, 2006, the station launched its <a href="#Good_TV">.2 digital channel with retro programming</a>, the first non-weather subchannel in the market.<sup id="cite_ref-bsun_10-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-bsun-10"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>10<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p><p>On May 15, 2012, Sinclair Broadcast Group and Fox agreed to a five-year extension to the network's affiliation agreement with Sinclair's 19 Fox stations, including WBFF, that will run through 2017. This included an option (that was exercisable from July 1, 2012, to March 31, 2013) to allow Sinclair to purchase WUTB, resulting in the creation of a virtual triopoly with WBFF and WNUV; while giving Fox the option to buy any combination of six CW and MyNetworkTV affiliates (two of which were standalone stations affiliated with the latter service) owned by Sinclair in three of four markets: <a href="/wiki/Raleigh" class="mw-redirect" title="Raleigh">Raleigh</a> (<a href="/wiki/WLFL" title="WLFL">WLFL</a> and <a href="/wiki/WRDC" title="WRDC">WRDC</a>), <a href="/wiki/Las_Vegas" title="Las Vegas">Las Vegas</a> (<a href="/wiki/KVCW" title="KVCW">KVCW</a> and <a href="/wiki/KSNV" title="KSNV">KVMY</a>), <a href="/wiki/Cincinnati" title="Cincinnati">Cincinnati</a> (<a href="/wiki/WSTR-TV" title="WSTR-TV">WSTR-TV</a>) and <a href="/wiki/Norfolk,_Virginia" title="Norfolk, Virginia">Norfolk</a> (<a href="/wiki/WTVZ" class="mw-redirect" title="WTVZ">WTVZ</a>).

It is also the highest output of Sinclair Broadcast Group's stations (both out of its Fox affiliates and the company's overall television stations). </p><p>Sinclair decided to invest in developing a news department for WBFF, with the station launching a nightly 10 p.m. newscast on June 3, 1991, co-anchored by Lisa Willis (formerly of WWOR-TV) and Jeff Barnd. The station added a weekday morning newscast in March 2000. In February 2003, it added a weeknight 11 p.m. newscast that was broadcast from Sinclair's now-defunct centralized news service, <a href="/wiki/News_Central_(American_TV_program)" title="News Central (American TV program)">News Central</a>, located in <a href="/wiki/Hunt_Valley,_Maryland" title="Hunt Valley, Maryland">Hunt Valley</a>. The start time of the weekday morning newscast was moved to 5:30 a.m. and an early evening newscast at 5:30 p.m. was subsequently added to the schedule in January 2005. On June 2, 2008, WBFF became the first Baltimore television station to begin broadcast its local newscasts in <a href="/wiki/High-definition_television" title="High-definition television">high definition</a>. </p><p>Jeff Barnd, a former WBFF news anchor, also hosted and provided commentary for the Sinclair-distributed syndicated news program <i>American Crossroads</i>. WBFF was featured in an episode during the third season of <i><a href="/wiki/The_Simple_Life" title="The Simple Life">The Simple Life</a></i>. On that episode, <a href="/wiki/Paris_Hilton" title="Paris Hilton">Paris Hilton</a> and <a href="/wiki/Nicole_Richie" title="Nicole Richie">Nicole Richie</a> took control of the station's weekday morning newscast.

In 2015, former WJZ-TV co-anchor Kai Jackson was named the station's lead anchor. </p><p>On January 24, 2011, WBFF expanded its weekday morning newscast from four to five hours to 5–10 a.m. weekdays, with the 9 a.m. edition called <i>Fox 45 Good Day Baltimore</i>. On April 9, 2012, WBFF expanded its early evening newscast by adding another half-hour at 5 p.m., shifting <i><a href="/wiki/Judge_Judy" title="Judge Judy">Judge Judy</a></i> to a full-hour at 4 p.m.; the 5:30 p.m. newscast remains, but is treated as a separate newscast.
