- Its complicated: Sammi Brie actually has local WP:SIGCOV material for this station, from newspapers. At the same time, I don't know how to actually put the sources in. mer764KCTV5 / Cospaw (He/Him | Talk • Contributions) 15:54, 11 June 2024 (UTC)
- Speedy close. This nomination appears to be the result of a content dispute. (SN: I am not involved in the dispute nor have I ever heard of this TV station; but I read the article and although it could stand a rewrite, the station seems notable, IMO.)

- This nomination has nothing to do with the content dispute involving Baltimore stations. Mvcg66b3r (talk) 05:09, 11 June 2024 (UTC)
- Keep I will vouch that the content dispute has nothing to do with the slow drip of AfDs of non-notable low-power TV stations. I will also vouch this one shouldn't be tossed with them. Substantial local SIGCOV exists for this one.[1][2][3][4][5] Sammi Brie (she/her • t • c) 06:03, 11 June 2024 (UTC)
