On its main subchannel, the station rebroadcasts over 95% of WKAQ-TV's programming under an affiliation agreement. WORA-TV produces some local programming, mostly airing on Sunday afternoons. During local programming, the station brands itself as either Telecinco or WORA Televisión. The station is owned by Telecinco, Inc. WORA-TV maintain studio facilities at the Guanajibo Building in Mayaguez, and its transmitter located at Monte del Estado in Maricao.

History

Founded by Alfredo Ramírez de Arellano y Bártoli in 1955, WORA-TV was the first television station in Puerto Rico's west coast. The station was named for then-sister station WORA radio (760 AM). During its early years, the station produced its own programming, but its schedule eventually shifted toward infomercials, possibly due to the lack of interest from local businesses to advertise on television.

In 1979, WORA-TV entered into an affiliation agreement with San Juan-based WAPA-TV, ending its run as a locally-run independent station. After that point, most television stations on the island's western coast followed suit. By joining with economically stronger stations from the San Juan market, market divisions on the island ended.

In 1985, WORA-TV changed its affiliation agreement to WKAQ-TV, and on January 1, 1995, at exactly 12:00 AM, it started a new affiliation agreement with WLII.

On September 19, 2014, it was announced that WORA would become an ABC affiliate on November 1, 2014, replacing low-power station WPRU-LP, carrying the network on a subchannel branded as ABC 5.^[1]

On January 1, 2015, WORA-TV again become a semi-satellite of WKAQ-TV on channel 5.1. Univision programming moved to WOLE-DT channel 12, on the same date. On March 9, 2015, WORA's third digital subchannel added VIVE, which broadcasts series from Televisión Española.

News operation

WORA-TV has a small news division branded as WORA-TV Noticias which airs during WKAQ-TV's Telenoticias news broadcasts. This 15 to 30 minute news segments concentrates on events happening in and around Mayagüez and Puerto Rico's west coast.

Its ABC subchannel simulcast WABC-TV's news programming. The local programs, En Récord, En Récord Extra and Vive Tu Nite, broadcasts on the evening.
