XETV TV 6 was a TV station in San Diego, California, USA airing syndicated entertainment programming.
XETV TV 6 is an unusual story in local TV broadcasting. The station has been licensed to operate from Tijuana in Baja California, Mexico since it was launched in 1953. Because Tijuana is directly to the south of San Diego, the station was permitted to air English-language programming to serve the San Diego market and did so from launch until May 31, 2017 when it shut its San Diego operations after losing its affiliation with the CW Television Network. The station is now inactive in that it is no longer a Mexican TV station serving an American audience.
XETV was an ABC Television Network affiliate in the early years (1953-1973), and one of the first stations to affiliate with the Fox Television Network -- it stayed with Fox from 1986 to 2008. It then joined the CW Network.
This TV station was owned by Televisa S.A. de C.V..
