First Alert 4 began broadcasting in St. Louis as KWK-TV on July 8, 1954. Four years later, CBS Inc. purchased the station and changed its call letters to KMOX-TV. On May 16, 1986, Viacom International, Inc., bought KWK-TV from CBS. Because CBS retained the KMOX call letters for the AM radio station it still owned locally, a change in the Channel 4 call letters was necessary. KMOX-TV became KMOV-TV. Belo Corp. acquired the station on June 1, 1997. On June 13, 2013, the Gannett Company announced that it would acquire Belo. On December 23, 2013, shortly after the Gannett/Belo deal was approved and completed, Meredith Corporation announced that it would purchase KMOV. In December 2021, Gray Television, Inc. purchased KMOV.
