RabbitEars says it's not on the air yet. And you might need a good outdoor antenna to pick it up, since its transmitter is near Walnut Ridge.

Now, when will Jonesboro get a CBS affiliate? Or will WREG fight it?
 
I think that KJNB is owned by the same group that owns WNBJ. I hope KNBJ has better luck getting cable coverage in the Jonesboro area than WNBJ has in Jackson. They're on Jackson Energy Authority cable, but Charter is still not carrying them. I think the biggest problem is that Charter has had a policy of not carrying LP stations, which is wrong in the case of a station that is carrying a big 4 network.
 
All the new fox station needs is news from 4-9am, Jerry Springer, Maury, Steve Wilkos to pad their mornings, news at noon then anything else until 6 then air news, TMZ until 7pm Fox primetime until 9.

they did. They're already on Suddenlink (replacing Fox Memphis)
Fusion hasnt replaced it yet
PLWC (Paragould Water and light). From their facebook page dated 5/28 "This week our FOX affiliate changed from WHBQ 13 to KJNB, which is owned and operated by Jonesboro TV, LLC of Meridian, MS. They were granted exclusive FOX network broadcasting rights for the Jonesboro Designated Market Area (DMA), which includes Paragould. "
 
CW coming OTA too. They bought the license from New Moon for channel 42 with the goal to be CW Plus programming
(New Moon had the license years ago with the intent to be NBC but never materialized)
