It began broadcasting on May 4, 1953, as WKNX-TV on channel 57. Owned by the Lake Huron Broadcasting Corporation and affiliated with <a href="/wiki/CBS" title="CBS">CBS</a>, the small local station did not provide primary service to the Flint area for its first two decades of operation. The station moved to the lower channel 25 in 1965. It was purchased in 1972 by the broadcasting division of the <a href="/wiki/Rust_Craft_Greeting_Card_Company" title="Rust Craft Greeting Card Company">Rust Craft Greeting Card Company</a>; Rust Craft changed the call letters to WEYI-TV and built a new studio and high-power transmitter facility near Clio, significantly improving the station's coverage. Rust Craft was purchased by <a href="/wiki/Ziff-Davis" class="mw-redirect" title="Ziff-Davis">Ziff-Davis</a> in 1979, followed by a leveraged buyout of most of the Ziff-Davis station group in 1982 that formed Television Station Partners. However, by this point, the station was an entrenched distant third in local news ratings; by 1989, the station only had one regular daily newscast. </p><p>In 1994, WEYI aggressively relaunched and expanded its news operation, including additional newscasts and the doubling of the news team. In an unrelated move, the station switched affiliations to NBC from CBS in January 1995 after that network signed an agreement with previous NBC affiliate <a href="/wiki/WNEM-TV" title="WNEM-TV">WNEM-TV</a>. Channel 25 was sold four times in eight years from 1996 to 2004; during this time, the news department continued to expand. Under <a href="/wiki/Barrington_Broadcasting" title="Barrington Broadcasting">Barrington Broadcasting</a> ownership, the station launched WBSF, originally as a cable- and digital-only service and later as a standalone station to bring <a href="/wiki/The_WB" title="The WB">The WB</a> and The CW to the market. </p><p>Howard Stirk Holdings acquired WEYI in 2013 as part of the purchase of Barrington by Sinclair Broadcast Group, with which Howard Stirk stations contract for services and management. In 2023, layoffs at Sinclair led to the downsizing of the newsroom, which now only produces newscasts on weekday evenings. </p> <meta property="mw:PageProp/toc" /> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="History">History</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=WEYI-TV&action=edit&section=1" title="Edit section: History"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Early_years">Early years</h3><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=WEYI-TV&action=edit&section=2" title="Edit section: Early years"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>In August 1952, the Lake Huron Broadcasting Corporation, owner of radio station <a href="/wiki/WJNL" title="WJNL">WKNX (1210 AM)</a>,<sup id="cite_ref-4" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-4"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>a<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> applied to the <a href="/wiki/Federal_Communications_Commission" title="Federal Communications Commission">Federal Communications Commission</a> (FCC) for a <a href="/wiki/Construction_permit" class="mw-redirect" title="Construction permit">construction permit</a> to build a television station on <a href="/wiki/Ultra_high_frequency" title="Ultra high frequency">ultra high frequency</a> (UHF) channel 57 in Saginaw.<sup id="cite_ref-5" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-5"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>4<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> With no other applications for the channel, the FCC granted the permit on October 1, 1952.<sup id="cite_ref-6" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-6"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>5<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p><p>Construction moved quickly.
