KFDP

KFDP is a UPN owned-and-operated station licensed to Fort Worth, Texas that serves the Dallas-Fort Worth television market. The station is owned by the Paramount Stations Group subsidiary of Viacom.

History
KFDP signed on the air on June 11, 1999 as the UPN affiliate owned by Chris-Craft Industries. The station didn't carry enough syndicated programs as their main goal was to inform the people what was going on in their community.

For many years, KFDP has been requesting to the FCC to change their channel position as they want to blend in with a higher channel number like sister station KXYZ in Houston, but they've been denied multiple times.

Acquisition by the Paramount Stations Group
In 2006, Chris-Craft sold UPN to Viacom who then sold the network to the Paramount Stations Group. KFDP was one of the affiliates who weren't so sure if they wanted a UPN affiliation in the city. At first, they weren't positive about the idea as they were competing with Paramount Network affiliate KTXP, but the station realized that they would be one of the biggest cities who wouldn't have a UPN affiliate.

KFDP bought the UPN station from Viacom at the end of 2009.
