WDNN-CD (channel 49) is a low-power, Class A independent television station in Dalton, Georgia, United States. It is owned by North Georgia Television alongside WDGA-CD (channel 43). The two stations share studios on South Spencer Street in Dalton.
History[edit]
WDNN started broadcasting in May 1989. The station was created to serve the community through locally produced programs. The staff initially consisted of Doug Jensen, Doug Smith, Sherry Wein and James Logan.
In the spring of 1993, WDNN started a daily newscast called NewsWatch 10. It was at that time that Calvin Means and three reporters joined the WDNN team. The station grew from being on one cable system to four systems that cover Northwest Georgia. WDNN then added WLFW, WRNG, and WDGA to broadcast their programs over the air.
