KSWB-TV

KSWB-TV (channel 69, cable channel 5) is a television station in San Diego, California, United States, affiliated with the Fox network. It is owned by Nexstar Media Group alongside independent station KUSI-TV (channel 51). The two stations share studios on Viewridge Avenue (near I-15) in the Kearny Mesa section of San Diego; KSWB-TV's transmitter is located southeast of Spring Valley. The station is branded as Fox 5 San Diego, in reference to its primary cable channel number in the market.

KSWB-TV went on the air in September 1984 as KTTY. Owned by a consortium that represented four separate applicants for the channel, KTTY was the third independent station in the market; its programming was perceived at the time to be generally inferior to its two competitors. In 1994, the station was placed into bankruptcy to avoid foreclosure, during which time it affiliated with The WB. Tribune Broadcasting won the bidding to purchase KTTY in 1995, and the station was relaunched as KSWB-TV on August 16, 1996. Tribune provided stronger programming that improved the station's ratings. Between 1999 and 2005, KSWB produced a local 10 p.m. newscast, which was then outsourced to KNSD-TV as part of a wave of cost cuts.

In 2008, Tribune reached a deal to make KSWB-TV the region's new Fox affiliate, displacing XETV, a Tijuana-based independent that had long targeted the U.S. market. The move led the station to restart its own local newscasts. In 2024, Nexstar bought KUSI-TV, giving it a duopoly in San Diego.
