Latest News About Kbsi-Dt

I don’t have live tool access right now to pull the very latest updates. Here’s what I can share based on recent public information up to 2026:

• KBSI-DT is the Fox affiliate licensed to Cape Girardeau, Missouri, serving southeastern Missouri and the surrounding region. It operates a main Fox feed on digital channel 23.1 and carries several subchannels.[1][2]
• Ownership history relevant to KBSI-DT in the mid-2020s included significant asset transactions: Sinclair announced repurchase of non-license assets of KBSI and WDKA in 2025, with a licensed asset transaction involving Rincon Broadcasting Group in 2026, completing the sale of the KBSI/WDKA licenses as part of a larger group sale for about $50 million.[1]
• KBSI had previously collaborated with KFVS for news production (an arrangement that expanded a KFVS-produced newscast to an hour in 2010) until March 2022, after which KFVS moved its newscast to KFVS-DT2. Subsequently, in March 2022, KBSI launched its own newscast produced from KLKN in Lincoln, Nebraska, with reporters located at KBSI’s Cape Girardeau studios.[2][1]
• KBSI’s digital subchannels have included a mix of network affiliations and local programming: 23.2 typically carried a SD simulcast of WDKA, 23.3 Comet, 23.4 Ion Plus (Defy), 23.5 Bounce, and 23.6 Buzzr, alongside the main 23.1 Fox feed.[1]
• For historical context, KBSI transitioned from analog to digital in 2009, with its digital signal remaining on UHF channel 22 and virtual channel 23 after the transition.[1]

If you’d like, I can look up the very latest headlines (e.g., any new licensing changes, market moves, or local news updates about KBSI-DT) and provide up-to-date citations. I can also fetch a short summary of any recent news articles and, if you prefer, compile a quick timeline of ownership and programming changes.
