WSFJ-TV (channel 51) is a television station licensed to London, Ohio, United States, broadcasting the Ion Television network to the Columbus area. Owned and operated by the Ion Media subsidiary of the E. W. Scripps Company, the station maintains studios on North Central Drive in Lewis Center, Ohio.

Even though WSFJ-TV is licensed as a full-power station, its broadcasting radius only covers the immediate Columbus area, as it shares spectrum with low-power, Class A Daystar station WCLL-CD, which transmits from a tower on Twin Rivers Drive near downtown Columbus.[4] Therefore, WSFJ-TV relies on cable and satellite carriage to reach the entire market.
