KTOU-LD (channel 22) is a low-power television station in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma, United States. The station is owned by Innovate Corp.

The station began broadcasting in 1994 from a tower in Newcastle, Oklahoma. It aired family television programming from the American Independent Network.[2][3] In 1999, it converted to a Spanish-language program format; plans were delayed when the original Newcastle tower was destroyed in a tornado that May.[4] The Hispanic Television Network acquired the station in 2000.[5]

In June 2013, KTOU-LD was slated to be sold to Landover 5 as part of a larger deal involving 51 other low-power television stations;[6] the sale fell through in June 2016.[7] Mako Communications sold its stations, including KTOU-LD, to Innovate Corp. in 2017.[8]
