MIAMI — For longtime South Florida television viewers, the “Great Affiliation Switch” isn’t so much of a distant memory. On New Year’s Day 1989, the Fox, NBC and CBS affiliations all shifted in Miami. Now, after nearly 69 years, WPLG-10 will be parting ways with the network today owned by The Walt Disney Co.
It’s going to a digital multicast signal for a station owned by the company founded by the late Ed Ansin.
