WMYT-TV (channel 55) is a television station licensed to Rock Hill, South Carolina, United States, serving the Charlotte, North Carolina, area as an affiliate of MyNetworkTV. It is owned by Nexstar Media Group alongside Fox affiliate WJZY (channel 46), licensed to Belmont, North Carolina. The stations broadcast from studios on Performance Road in Charlotte and from the same transmitter at Dallas, North Carolina. WMYT-TV is branded as My 12, in reference to its channel location on most Charlotte-area cable providers.

Channel 55 spent nearly a decade in applications and hearings. Twelve applicants competed for the channel, and different levels of FCC review awarded the construction permit to three different applicants in three consecutive years. After the last winning applicant was unable to build the station, it sold the permit to Family Fifty Five Inc., which put WFVT on the air on October 21, 1994. WJZY, then owned by Capitol Broadcasting Company, supplied WFVT's programming under a local marketing agreement before Capitol acquired it outright in 1999. The station affiliated with The WB upon its launch in January 1995, changing its call sign to WWWB in 2001 to promote its affiliation, and aired a local 10 p.m. newscast between 2000 and 2002.

When The WB and UPN merged to form The CW in 2006, the network affiliated with WJZY, leaving WWWB to affiliate with MyNetworkTV under new WMYT-TV call letters. Fox acquired WJZY and WMYT in 2013 and sold them in 2019 to Nexstar.
