KXLN-TV, Channel 45, is the Univision-owned and operated station in Houston, Texas, and its surrounding area.

History

Founded in 1984 by businessmen A.C. Pena and J. Adan Trevino, KXLN was the first Spanish language television station in the Houston area. From the beginning, it has been affiliated with the Univision network. In September 1987, the station became full power and expanded its signal to cover a larger area. In 1988, a news department began producing primetime news updates which eventually evolved into full 30-minute newscasts.

In 1993, KXLN was acquired by the Univision Network, and had upgrades and improvements in every department. The year also marked the debut of Houston's first Spanish language morning show, "Houston Ahora" as well as an innovative late evening newscast called "15 Minutos".

As the station has grown in size and renown throughout the area and nationally, its ratings have increased to the point of challenging several of the English language stations in local news during the quarterly ratings periods. A number of reporters and anchors have been able to move on to positions for Noticiero Univision, the network's news division and several network newsmagazines.

In 2001, Telefutura was launched by Univision. The Houston affiliate KFTH-TV, Channel 67, began operating in a local partnership with KXLN. This means that some KXLN produced programs and breaking news events may air on KFTH.

In 2002, Univision, for several million dollars, purchased a six-story building in Houston's Uptown area now serves as facilities for KXLN-TV, sister station KFTH-TV, and several radio stations under the Univision umbrella. They moved into this building in 2006, after spending 22 years at their location along Kirby Drive near the Astrodome.

In 2003, KXLN's then News Director, Deanna Landron, initiated one of the first in the nation Spanish language investigative local news franchises "En Su Defensa" (in your defense) segments that garnered regional acclaim, and "En Su Defensa" month was proclaimed by Mayor Bill White in 2004. Led by Investigative reporter Patricio Espinoza, the segment generated strong community following and historic ratings along with several awards. In 2004, 2005 and 2006 the investigative reports earned, for the first time, KXLN several Emmyawards and nominations.
