WLAX

WLAX (channel 25) and WEUX (channel 48) are television stations licensed respectively to La Crosse and Chippewa Falls, Wisconsin, United States, serving as the Fox affiliates for western Wisconsin. They are owned by Nexstar Media Group.

WLAX serves the southern portion of the market, while WEUX operates as a full-time satellite for Eau Claire and the market's northern portion. WLAX maintains studio facilities at Interchange Place in La Crosse and a transmitter in La Crescent, Minnesota. WEUX has offices on WIS 93 in Eau Claire and a transmitter southeast of Colfax.

WLAX in La Crosse went on the air in November 1986, after two sales of the permit, as the original independent station in the market. It joined Fox shortly afterward. Family Group Broadcasting, which put the station on the air, attempted to build the Eau Claire station as a satellite of WLAX but fell into bankruptcy before it could do so. Aries Telecommunications of Green Bay bought WLAX and the WEUX construction permit in 1991 and was able to build out and sign on WEUX in 1993. Grant Broadcasting acquired the pair in 1996, and Nexstar acquired Grant's stations in 2014. The stations air a 9 p.m. local newscast produced by local NBC affiliate WEAU.
