broadcasting on virtual channel 8, is a TV station in New Orleans,
Louisiana, affiliated with the Fox Broadcasting Company. WVUE is owned
by Louisiana Media Company, with studios in the Gert Town section of New
Orleans and transmitter in Chalmette, Louisiana.The station moved to
channel 13 on January 13, 1959 and to channel 12 in 1962 due to
interference with WLOX in Biloxi, Mississippi, which also broadcasts on
channel 13. Screen Gems bought the station in 1965 and changed the call
letters to WVUE. On June 8, 1970, it made a highly-publicized switch of
dial positions with the city's PBS station, WYES-TV, and moved to its
current location on channel 8.
