homepage =XHLAR-TV is the
television call sign for theTelevisa television station inNuevo Laredo, Tamaulipas ,Mexico . The channel can also be seen in theLaredo, Texas market.In addition to local news and programming, XHLAR also airs a selection of programming from Televisa's other stations:
XHGC-TV ,XHTV ,XEQ-TV , andXEW-TV .An interesting coincidence is between XHLAR and the
Univision affiliateKLDO-TV ; they both carry some of the same TV programming provided by Televisa (in XHLAR's case, it's because it's a Televisa affiliate; in KLDO's case, Univision carries some Televisa programming in its lineup and this is thus reflected in KLDO's lineup).The station originally signed on in the mid-1990s as XHFTX-TV, broadcasting programming from the Fox network for Laredo; prior to XHFTX's sign-on, Laredo viewers received their Fox programs on cable either from the national
Foxnet service, or from San Antonio'sKABB .In
2002 , XHFTX disaffiliated from Fox and became XHLAR-TV; Fox programming was reportedly replaced on cable with KABB. It would be about five years before Laredo would get another local Fox affiliate,KXOF-CA .External links
