WTVJ TV 6 is a TV station in Miami, Florida, USA covering NBC network programs, local news and weather.

WTVJ TV 6 is an affiliate of the NBC Television Network.

WTVJ TV 6 went on the air on March 21, 1949. It was Florida's first television station and the 16th in the country. Originally broadcasting on channel 4, WTVJ was owned by Wometco Enterprises, a national movie theater chain headquartered in Miami. Investment firm Kohlberg Kravis Roberts & Co. took over Wometco in 1984 in a deal worth $1 billion, the largest corporate buyout ever to that date. In 1986, KKR opted to put WTVJ on the market. The only offers for WTVJ came from companies that owned large groups of independent stations that wanted to make WTVJ an independent station, or a Fox affiliate, for a price far lower than KKR's asking price. The only way that KKR could make such a large profit was to sell WTVJ to another network. In 1987, KKR agreed to sell WTVJ to NBC.

This TV station is owned by NBC Universal.
