History
It was founded by RKO General, Inc. on June 29, 1983 and first hit the airwaves almost a month later on July 24. The station went on the air for the first time at that date as "WCBN-TV". Prior to that, NBC programming was seen on Plattsburgh's WPTZ (Channel 5) in St. Lawrence County and Syracuse's WSTM-TV (Channel 3) in Jefferson and Lewis Counties, both of which are available on cable.

It was sold to the McKinnon family of San Diego, California in 1989 upon RKO General's last years in the broadcasting business.

In August 1993, the McKinnon family sold WCBN to Gannett for a stake of 34 million in their equipment and property for their flagship station KUSI-TV in San Diego.

In February 1999, WCBN drops the "36" and changes its branding to "NBC Northcountry", to reflect its affiliation and its service area.

In August 2013, the callsign was changed to "WNNC-TV", to reflect its on-air branding.

On June 29, 2015, the Gannett Company split in two, with one side specializing in print media and the other side specializing in broadcast and digital media. KPNX was retained by the latter company, named TEGNA.

Since McKinnon Broadcasting sold its two Texas stations, KBMT in Beaumont and KIII in Corpus Christi, to the London Broadcasting Company respectively in August 5, 2009 and August 31, 2010, KUSI and WFL-TV are currently the company's only remaining television station properties As of August 2014.
