WXTV (Ohio)
- ... that WXTV in Youngstown, Ohio, had "technical difficulties" and left the air for good just days after hearings were set to revoke its permit to operate? Source
- ALT1: (Combo hook with WWIZ (Lorain, Ohio)) ... that the sale of WWIZ radio in Lorain, Ohio, undertaken in order to raise capital needed to build WXTV in Youngstown, prompted both stations to lose their licenses? Source (pages 58/60)

- Well, this is a unique situation (as I said in the WWIZ (Lorain, Ohio) nomination page). I've never reviewed a nomination where there is both an individual and a combo hook, but for the sake of consistency, I will review the other one as well. epicgenius (talk) 21:54, 28 November 2019 (UTC)

WWIZ (Lorain, Ohio): per Template:Did you know nominations/WWIZ (Lorain, Ohio), good to go as well. epicgenius (talk) 21:54, 28 November 2019 (UTC)
@Raymie: I've removed WWIZ from this nomination per discussion at Template:Did you know nominations/WWIZ (Lorain, Ohio). If we're going with ALT1, is the fact that both stations lost their license included in the WXTV article? Yoninah (talk) 23:54, 22 December 2019 (UTC)
- @Raymie: Theoretically, WWIZ can still be run as a new article if enough of the preexisting content were taken out, with about 400 bytes of prose that remain from the preexisting version. I don't know if you would like though. epicgenius (talk) 23:58, 22 December 2019 (UTC)
- @Yoninah and Epicgenius: Probably a bit of a headache to do that. I've mentioned briefly that the same hearing action resulted in a denial of WWIZ's license renewal as well, so we should be good to go on your concern, Yoninah. Raymie (t • c) 04:15, 23 December 2019 (UTC)
