Red River Broadcasting was a television broadcasting company based in Fargo, North Dakota. It operated Fox affiliates in the Fargo, North Dakota and Duluth, Minnesota–Superior, Wisconsin television markets.

Curtis Squire, Inc., a holding company in Eden Prairie, Minnesota, owned 100% of Red River Broadcasting. The company, which formerly owned Regis Corporation, is owned by Anita, Bill, David, Drew, and James Kunin.^[1] Kathy Lau is the COO.^[2]

In addition to television stations, Red River Broadcasting once operated radio stations through a sister company named Red Rock Radio. At its height, Red Rock Radio owned a total of 25 stations in Minnesota and Wisconsin.^[3] However, following the death of Myron Kunin in 2013, his surviving family members decided to liquidate his broadcasting assets and sold the stations to various buyers.^[4]
