|The 1994–96 United States broadcast TV realignment continues when longtime ABC affiliate [[WGHP-TV]] (channel 8) in [[High Point, North Carolina]] is sold directly to Fox (acquired via New World Communications from [[Taft Broadcasting|Citicasters]], along with [[WBRC-TV]] in [[Birmingham, Alabama]] due to [[blind trust|ownership conflicts]]) and as a result, becomes a Fox-owned station. Former Fox affiliates [[WXLV-TV|WNRW-TV]] (channel 45)/[[WMYV-TV|WGGT-TV]] (channel 48, now [[MyNetworkTV]] affiliate [[WMYV-TV]]) assume the ABC affiliation, and WNRW-TV changes its callsign to [[WXLV-TV]] to reflect the new affiliation. Both stations retain a secondary [[UPN]] affiliation until WGGT-TV leaves its WXLV-TV simulcast to become a full-time UPN affiliate the next year.
