KLSR-TV (channel 34) is a television station in Eugene, Oregon, United States, affiliated with the Fox network. It is owned by Cox Media Group alongside MyNetworkTV affiliate KEVU-CD (channel 23), a low-power Class A station. The two stations share studios on Chad Drive in Eugene; KLSR's transmitter is located on South Ridge.
KLSR began as a low-power station (officially K25AS) on June 12, 1987, with a format consisting primarily of music videos. Though it lacked cable carriage until 1989, it had strong enough viewership within months of launching to obtain an affiliation with Fox. Despite being a low-power station, it produced its own prime time newscast for several years. It remained the Eugene Fox affiliate even though a full-power station, KEVU, began on channel 34 in 1991. California Oregon Broadcasting, Inc. acquired KLSR in 1993 and KEVU in 1994; though it stated its intention to move the Fox programming to the full-power channel 34 at the time, it did not do so until April 1, 1997. Cox Media Group acquired KLSR in 2022. Eugene CBS affiliate KVAL-TV produces 7 and 10 p.m. newscasts for KLSR-TV on weeknights.
