Field Communications regained control of WFLD in 1977 when Kaiser Broadcasting was merged into Field Enterprises. This logo design was shared with its sister stations at the time.
Field put all of its stations up for sale in 1982, which then sold all of its stations except WKBS-TV as part of its liquidation. In September of that year, Field sold WFLD as part of its liquidation, which went to Metromedia after completing the deal in March 1983.
In May 1985, Metromedia sold all of its independent stations (including WFLD) to News Corporation, who announced its intentions to launch the then-new Fox on May 7, 1986, with KTTV, KDAF, KRIV, WNYW and WTTG forming what would become Fox Television Stations.
In 1993, WFLD visually de-emphasized the use of references to channel 32, which became simply known as Fox Chicago. Similarly in 1995, WTXF-TV would perform the same de-emphasis on references to channel number 29, which would later be reverted back in 2003, however, in the case of WFLD, it was short-lived until 1994.
After 20 years of branding as Fox Chicago with under some capacity, WFLD reverted back to the former Fox 32 branding on November 12, 2012. The logo was updated to match with its sister stations as a result.
