XEWT-TV is the television call sign for the Televisa television station in Tijuana, Baja California, Mexico. Informally called "Tu Canal" (Your Channel), the channel can also be seen in most parts of the San Diego market.
In addition to local news and programming, aimed towards Hispanics on both sides of the border, XEWT also airs a selection of Televisa's programming.
Some of XEWT's resources and news reports are shared with its sister station in Mexicali, XHBC-TV; this is especially evident during the evening Notivisa newscasts.
XEWT was the first Spanish-language station for San Diego and Tijuana -- it signed on July 12, 1960. It was actually Tijuana's second TV station, with English-language XETV signing on in 1953.
An interesting coincidence is between XEWT and the Univision affiliate KBNT. Although both are competitors in the San Diego/Tijuana market, they both carry some of the same TV programming provided by Televisa (in XEWT's case, it's because it's a Televisa affiliate; in KBNT's case, Univision carries some Televisa programming in its lineup and this is thus reflected in KBNT's lineup).
