History

The station was first established in 1998 as K32EQ, and then KMCF-LP.

In 2000, Cocola Broadcasting acquired the call sign KJEO-LP for channel 32, after Fresno's CBS affiliate discarded the call sign in favor of KGPE. This call sign was changed to KJEO-LD in September 2009.

On March 30, 2023, Bridge Media Networks, the parent company of NewsNet and Sports News Highlights (SNH) (backed by 5-hour Energy creator Manoj Bhargava), announced it would acquire KJEO-LD and six other Cocola stations for $3.2 million. [3] Upon completion of the transaction, KJEO-LD would become a NewsNet owned-and-operated station for the Fresno–Visalia media market.

On July 20, 2023, the station changed its call sign to KBNK-LD.
