WGPR-TV
1975–1977
WWJ-TV started out as WGPR-TV, an independent television station owned and operated by an African-American Freemasonry. WGPR was the first Black-owned television in the United States.
1977–1983
1983–1985
1985–1994
1986
1994–1995
On December 11, 1994, WGPR became a CBS affiliate after its previous affiliate WJBK switched to Fox and WGPR was sold to CBS the following summer.
WWJ-TV
1995–2002
On July 24, 1995, the station changed its call letters from WGPR to WWJ-TV after its newly-made sister radio station, which CBS has owned since 1989. The station was branded on-air as Detroit's 62 CBS after CBS acquired the station.
2002–2006
In 2002, WWJ-TV rebranded itself as simply CBS Detroit thereby dropping its analog channel number in the process due to the fact of being the only CBS O&O station operating one of the highest analog channel numbers in existence. Similar "(NETWORK) (CITY)" branding conventions were already in use at the time by two other UHF major network owned-and-operated stations: Chicago station WFLD and Philadelphia station WTXF-TV, both owned-and-operated stations of Fox (and ironically two of WJBK's sister stations).
2006–2008
2008
On January 7, 2008, the station dropped its "CBS Detroit" moniker and rebranded using its call letters on-air, putting in line with its CBS O&O sister stations WBZ-TV, KDKA-TV, WCCO-TV, WJZ-TV, KUTV, KPIX, and flagship stations KCBS-TV and WCBS-TV.
2008–2012
2008–2010
2010–2012
In late 2009, the "CBS Detroit" moniker was reinstated on a secondary basis replacing the slogan introduced in the 2008 rebranding, "Driven by Detroit".
2012–present
2012–2013
On March 15, 2012, WWJ-TV rebranded itself as CBS 62, after a ten-year absence from using the channel 62 allocation for on-air branding use, putting the station in line with most of CBS' other owned-and-operated stations (except the four other CBS O&O's which continue to use their call letters as their on-air branding) and also to avoid confusion with former sister station WWJ-AM.
2013–2016
In 2013, WWJ added a blue box around its CBS 62 logo and also placed the call sign in Myriad Pro below the logo. This logo resembles that of Minneapolis-St. Paul-based sister station WCCO-TV, though the station still goes by the name CBS 62.
2016–present
On September 12, 2016, WWJ-TV dropped the blue box surrounding the logo (and the call sign under it) in favor of the 2012–2013 logo, only this time, the CBS eye is silver and the channel number is in gold, the same look has already been adopted by the other CBS O&Os.
