Background

After Osaka Television's shares were acquired by ABC, Mainichi Broadcasting System (MBS) began broadcasting its standalone TV signal on channel 4 on March 1, 1959, under the callsign JOOR-TV and began airing NET programs. In 1977, ABC Television switched to ANN, leading to MBS Television switching to JNN and began to broadcast TBS programs . A 2017 restructuring caused MBS to rename itself to MBS Media Holdings while the radio and TV operations were taken over by the second incarnation of MBS. In 2021, the radio station was spun-off into a wholly-owned subsidiary. As a result, the station changed its callsign from JOOR-DTV to JOOY-DTV.
