History
Both stations were launched on April 28, 2008 when KHBS and KHOG-TV decided to carry The CW on their digital signals. Previously, the network was only available from a cable-only CW affiliate operated by Cox. As part of The CW Plus operation, it was known as having the fictional callsign, "KCWA".[1][2][3]

Newscasts
On August 20, 2012, KHBS/KHOG began producing a nightly half-hour prime time newscast at 9 on their CW-affiliated second digital subchannels. The broadcast is the third prime time news option in the Fayetteville-Fort Smith market, joining a weeknight-only newscast on Fox outlet KFTA that is produced by sister station KNWA-TV and a nightly KFSM-produced newscast on MyNetworkTV affiliate KXNW.[6] As KHBS-DT2 and KHOG-DT2 receive CW network programming from The CW Plus, the newscast preempts syndicated programming normally seen in that timeslot on The CW Plus' national feed.[citation needed]
