west of US 441/SR 7. The station can also be seen on Comcast
channel 11 and in high definition on digital channel 434. The station is owned by Raycom Media
, and is operated through a shared services

affiliate WPTV-TV, which was announced in March 2011. WFLX currently shares studios with WPTV on South Australian Avenue in Downtown West Palm Beach. WFLX programming includes the full Fox lineup; Syndicated

29.2.
WFLX began operations in 1982 as the West Palm Beach market
's first Independent. The station was owned by Malrite Communications and ran a programming lineup typical of independent stations at the time—early-morning cartoons, late-morning religious programming, movies in early-afternoons/primetime, classic sitcoms in the late-afternoon, and current sitcoms during early/late-evenings. Unlike most independents, the amount of children's programming seen on WFLX during this time was low compared to similar stations in other markets, a trend owing to the older demographics of the West Palm Beach area.
On October 9, 1986, WFLX became one of the charter affiliates of Fox. At the time, it was the "de facto" affiliate of the network in all of South Florida since WCIX had a signal unable to reach most Broward
and Northern Miami-Dade
County viewers. WFLX retained this Fox affiliation through a heavy South Florida affiliation swap in January 1989, but it did lose most of its Miami/Ft. Lauderdale market share to WSVN
, which became a Fox affiliate through the swap.
As the 1990s approached, WFLX picked up Fox Kids
programming in afternoons and phased out older sitcoms for talk and reality shows. After the 1993/1994 season, it was recognized as the "Fox Affiliate of the Year". In September 1998, Malrite merged with current owner Raycom Media. Shortly after the merge, ratings came out affirming that WFLX was one of Fox's highest affiliates in terms of network ratings and has even showed numbers in the Miami/Fort Lauderdale market. In April 2002, WFLX was the first station in the West Palm Beach market to broadcast in high definition showing Fox programming in the updated format. Raycom merged with The Liberty Corporation in mid-2006.
Until the network's shutdown on October 1, 2007, WFLX offered The Tube Music Network, a 24-hour digital music video channel, on its second digital subchannel
and Comcast digital channel 220. Today, WFLX-DT2 is not officially occupied but shows a simple station identification and the current time of day. WFLX shut down analog transmissions on June 12, 2009 at noon, the stations broadcasts continued to be on its pre-transition channel 28. However, through the use of PSIP
, digital television receivers display its virtual channel
as 29. This TV
, which is currently not cleared in West Palm Beach, has been picked up by most Raycom Fox affiliates except for WFLX. The network has been airing on the second digital subchannel of Miami/Ft. Lauderdale CW affiliate WSFL-TV
which can be picked up over-the-air in southern areas of the market. On September 26, 2011, WFLX relaunched subchannel 29.2 with programming from Bounce TV
; the subchannel is also available on Comcast digital cable channel 220.
In March 2011, Raycom announced that WFLX would be operated through a shared services
agreement with WPTV-TV, the NBC
affiliate for the Treasure Coast
that is owned and operated by E. W. Scripps Company
. In addition to news content, which WPTV has produced for WFLX since the beginning of 2011 (see "News operation" below), WPTV will handle technical, promotional, and online operations for WFLX, along with possible production of local content outside of news. The stations will have separate sales departments; WFLX's sales team (which will remain separate from WPTV) will lease space at WPTV's studios on South Australian Avenue in Downtown West Palm Beach. It was later announced that WFLX would vacate their existing studio in Riviera Beach
at the end of May.
affiliate WPEC
(then owned by the Photo Electronics Corporation). On September 11, 1991, that station started producing a nightly prime time broadcast at 10 pm on WFLX known as Fox 29 10 O'Clock News. Originally thirty minutes long, it soon expanded to a full hour. In 2000, an hour-long weekday morning show at 7 am began to air entitled Fox 29 Morning News; this was expanded to two hours on September 6, 2006.
WFLX and WPEC maintained separate news sets and on-air identities but shared a weather set and most on-air personnel, except for a few that only appeared on one station. While produced by WPEC, the broadcasts maintained their own separate identity and look, similar to other Raycom stations. As with network programming, the newscasts also rated in the Miami-Fort Lauderdale market, a trend some have attributed to backlash to that area's Fox affiliate WSVN
. As a result, Adelphia (now Comcast) pulled WSVN off its West Palm Beach cable lineup in 2005. On January 31, 2008, WPEC and WFLX became the second and third stations respectively in all of South Florida to offer newscasts in high definition behind NBC
affiliate WPTV
.
WFLX is currently the only station in the West Palm Beach market to air a prime time newscast at 10 pm, although they did face competition from CW affiliate WTVX
, which aired their own 10 pm newscast (produced at the studios of its Salt Lake City sister station, KUTV, and including two locally-based reporters) from August 4, 2008 until it was moved to 6:30 pm on March 2, 2009 (and was discontinued altogether three months later).
It was announced on October 22, 2010 that the agreement with WPEC would end on December 31, 2010. On January 1, 2011, WPTV (owned by E.W. Scripps Company) established a new partnership with WFLX and began producing the two-hour weekday morning show and nightly hour-long primetime newscast. These newscasts originate from a secondary set at WPTV's facilities on South Australian Avenue in Downtown West Palm Beach (its mailing address actually says Banyan Boulevard, which is also known as 1st Street) and required the addition of more than a dozen new personnel. The new news agreement eventually led to WFLX's shared services agreement with WPTV later in 2011.
WPTV's news agreement with WFLX was the first time any of the nine Scripps stations have produced an on-air newscast for a non company-owned channel. An entire new format was introduced and the coverage is different. On Friday and Sunday nights at 10:45, there is a fifteen-minute sports highlight show called Sports Zone. On September 19, 2011, WPTV added a half-hour weekday late afternoon newscast to WFLX known as Fox 29 News First at 4. With this addition, there is now 57 hours of local news each week provided by the two stations. This addition makes it the third Fox affiliate to broadcast newscast produced by another station in the same market to carry a late afternoon or early evening newscast, along with WSYM-TV
in Lansing, Michigan
and WQRF in Rockford, Illinois
