19 officially joined CBS on April 12, 2004, broadcasting from the KLSB transmitter; the following day, the FCC officially granted the call sign change to KYTX (the KLSB callsign ended up on a low-power station broadcasting on UHF channel 53, which became the sole repeater of KETK, until it shut down in 2012). The station relocated its transmitter facilities to new tower located south of New Summerfield on June 13, 2004. The new transmitter facilities provided an upgraded signal that allowed KYTX to cover both the Tyler–Longview and Lufkin–Nacogdoches areas. The city of license has remained Nacogdoches. On October 18, 2007, the station was sold to the Addison-based London Broadcasting Company (owned by former Gaylord Entertainment Company CEO Terry E. London, in association with private equity firm Sun TX Capital Partners) for $25 million. On May 14, 2014, the Gannett Company announced that it would acquire KYTX and five other London Broadcasting stations in a $215 million all-cash transaction. Gannett's CEO Gracia Martore touted that the acquisition would give the company a presence in several fast-growing markets, and opportunities for local advertisers to leverage its digital marketing platform. Gannett also owns fellow Texas-based CBS affiliates KHOU in Houston and KENS in San Antonio, which the company had acquired in its 2013 purchase of the Belo Corporation. The sale was completed on July 8. London exempted sister station and MeTV affiliate KCEB (channel 54) from the deal (as well as company flagship KTXD-TV in the Dallas suburb of Greenville), which resulted in the first instance in which a duopoly was legally and operationally separated. The acquisition closed on July 8, 2014. Under Gannett ownership, the station is held under the same holding company that previously used to own KMOV-TV, which was sold to Meredith Corporation after Gannett's purchase of Belo. On June 29, 2015, the Gannett Company split in two, with one side specializing in print media and the other side specializing in broadcast and digital media. KYTX was retained by the latter company, named Tegna. Anchorwoman reality show KYTX was the center of a reality series on Fox titled Anchorwoman, which filmed at the station's Tyler studios during the spring of 2007. The series starred Lauren Jones (a former beauty pageant winner, The Price Is Right model and featured WWE Diva), who trained to become an anchor at the station.
