Bob Wisehart of the Charlotte News described WRET's news operation as "spend[ing] a great deal of effort going no place at all". The same could have been said of the station, which was said to be barely breaking even after the switch.

In 1999, the station's news department was chronicled in the five-part PBS documentary series Local News . That same year, WCNC entered into a news share agreement with then-Fox affiliate WCCB to take over production of that station's 10 p.m. newscast, shortly after WSOC-TV ended its agreement to produce
305-688: A film rental contract. That September, a court placed WCTU into receivership, though it continued to broadcast. Stating that "we feel there have been combined forces which hinder our operation", Twisdale foreshadowed a years-long antitrust case against the Jefferson-Pilot Corporation, owner of WBTV, which was not fully dismissed until 1977. Channel 36 found a buyer in February 1970: Atlanta broadcasting mogul Ted Turner , who purchased WCTU through Turner Broadcasting of North Carolina for $ 1.25 million. Turner had scouted out buying equipment from

However, not all of the talent changes made were positively received; the ouster of Beatrice Thompson, who had been Charlotte's first full-time Black anchor at WBTV in the 1980s, led to protests by some viewers who felt she had been forced out because of her race. Boylan retired in December 2000. The station showed momentum in local news ratings in

He and a friend put up $ 12,500 each and launched a radio station in Kosciusko, Mississippi . Within a year, Bahakel bought out his partner and found that one of the best investments in business was an hour spent talking to customers over a cup of coffee. He went on to build radio stations from scratch in Greenwood, Mississippi , Kingsport, Tennessee , and Roanoke, Virginia . One of his larger-market radio purchases

The next year, Ray Boylan, a longtime meteorologist at WSOC-TV, unretired and did on-air reports on WCNC, while the station also hired Terri Bennett, who had been in the running to replace him on channel 9 but was passed over. Boylan and Bennett were backed up by the station's purchase of

Odyssey Partners, a New York investment partnership headed by Michael Finkelstein, acquired WPCQ-TV in 1984 after four years of Westinghouse ownership.

Spun off to local ownership in 1984, WPCQ's status with NBC remained uncertain despite substantial technical upgrades and a reinvestment in local news. Purchased by The Providence Journal Company in 1988, the Belo Corporation in 1996, and Tegna Inc. predecessor Gannett in 2013, the station was renamed WCNC-TV in 1989 and has generally been Charlotte's third-rated television station since. The first station to operate on UHF channel 36 in Charlotte signed on
854-684: The NBC Nightly News . This prompted NBC officials to shop the Nightly News to Charlotte's other stations, including WBTV. The station continued with its noon newscast, as well as short news capsules throughout the day and occasional news specials. Station officials blamed WPCQ-TV's signal, which—despite the power increase—was not strong enough to reach outer areas of the market that got better signals from WXII-TV in Winston-Salem, North Carolina , and WIS-TV in Columbia, South Carolina . John J. Spinola,

Even Westinghouse's own productions were not guaranteed an audience on the station; after two years of WPCQ-TV airing Hour Magazine , it moved to WBTV in 1982. Seeing little positive progress with WPCQ-TV, Westinghouse soon chose to use
976-558: The Atlanta Braves and Atlanta Hawks . With the decision, WCCB became an independent station. Two months after assuming the NBC affiliation, WRET launched its first newscasts in September, under the banner of "Action News"; Robert D. Raiford was the station's first news anchor. The main news was presented at 7 p.m., but the different time slot failed to attract viewers. Where WBTV had
1037-545: The Journal ' s Providence radio stations, the station instead became WCNC-TV (for "Charlotte, North Carolina" ) on September 3, 1989. That same day, the station split its 5:30 p.m. news hour into two half-hour newscasts, and it also moved to cable channel 6 on most area systems. The station also built new studios, costing $ 6.5 million, on Billy Graham Parkway in the Wood Ridge office complex, where it would be joined by
1098-682: The Live Well Network . WCNC-TV was added to Charlotte's ATSC 3.0 (NextGen TV) deployment on WAXN-TV on July 7, 2021.

WCCB was seen as the favorite; unlike WRET, it had a functioning news department. Sources at NBC were said to see channel 36 as their last option behind WCCB, with its stronger signal, and long-dominant WBTV, which the network was trying to woo from CBS to no avail. Turner, however, promised NBC that he would spend $ 2.5 million on station improvements if

On May 16, 1979, the sale of WRET-TV to Westinghouse Broadcasting (also known as Group W) was announced for $ 20 million, setting a then-record for a single UHF television station.

Charlotte's second television station, WAYS-TV/WQMC-TV did not make any headway against WBTV (channel 3) because television set manufacturers were not required to include UHF tuning capability at the time; this would not change until Congress passed the All-Channel Receiver Act in 1961. It ceased operations in March 1955. A plan to return it to

Cy Bahakel bought the station in 1964 and returned it to the air as WCCB , which broadcast on channel 36 before moving to UHF channel 18 in November 1966. The current incarnation of channel 36 signed on the air on July 9, 1967, as WCTU-TV. Dr. Harold W. Twisdale,

Twisdale and Steel were the lead investors in other planned UHF stations; though construction permits were never built for stations in Memphis and Richmond and the group lost out on channel 28 in Durham , WCTU-TV and WATU-TV (later WAGT ) in Augusta, Georgia , made it to air. WATU-TV was a profitable operation; in comparison, debts incurred in starting WCTU-TV would prompt Twisdale to shelve his Memphis and Richmond plans. WCTU

At the time, he owned just one other television property, WJRJ-TV in his hometown Atlanta, as well as three radio stations in other southeastern cities.

On June 13, 2013, the Gannett Company announced that it would acquire Belo for $ 1.5 billion. The sale was finalized on December 23.

Westinghouse changed the station's call letters to WPCQ-TV, representing "People of the Carolinas and Queen City", on September 29; the station rebranded as "Q36" to go with the callsign change. The move came alongside a major programming reshuffle and an increase in effective radiated power from 1.3 to 2.5 million watts. The newscasts were moved from 6 and 11 p.m. to 5:30 p.m. and 12:30 a.m., and several new magazine shows were added, as

For much of the 2000s, WCNC had waged a spirited battle with WBTV for second place behind WSOC-TV, though it would later return to a distant third place in most timeslots as the performance of the NBC network in the late 2000s and poor daytime syndicated offerings dragged it down. This continued in the February 2016 sweeps, when its evening newscasts drew barely half

The station had just one on-air personality: announcer Bob Chesson, who as "Dead Ernest" hosted the station's block of horror films. One Saturday morning in February 1972, Turner appeared on the station to appeal for contributions from viewers, saying that channel 36 had not broken even since he had purchased it. The station drew $ 53,000 in donations, enough to help pay its bills, and also received interest from several new advertisers. WRET-TV became

After a solid, if low-rated, start under Turner's watch, the news department was severely hamstrung by Group W's bargain-basement approach to running the station. Group W immediately dropped the station's weekend evening newscasts and moved the 11 p.m. newscast to 12:30 a.m. before canceling it altogether in 1981. The early evening newscast
2867-432: The station was branded on-air as "NBC 6", in reference to its cable channel location; it quietly shed that moniker to go by its call letters in 2004, seeking to avoid potential confusion in ratings diaries. Two veteran anchors are gone, news ratings are perennially low and national consultants say the NBC affiliate is among the network's most dubious underachievers. Erik Spanberg, Charlotte Business Journal , on

Westinghouse had long extensively promoted from within and thus used WPCQ as the equivalent of a " farm team " for its larger stations.

In late 2005, WCNC debuted the Charlotte market's first 4:30 p.m. newscast, creating a two-hour local news block from 4:30 to 6:30 p.m. In 2007, the station phased out its longtime 6News brand and rebranded itself as "WCNC, Carolinas' News Connection". In August 2008, it rebranded once again to NewsChannel 36 , marking the first time in 12 years that WCNC had used its over-the-air channel number in its branding.

Channel 36 ended the year by announcing plans to repay the viewers whose contributions had saved it four years prior, doing so in February 1976. Each of the 3,600 contributors, who had sent in from 25 cents to $ 200, received checks returning their money—with interest—from Turner. In 1976 and 1977, channel 36 became an even more aggressive buyer of programming, grabbing local rights to Mary Hartman, Mary Hartman from WSOC-TV and stepping in to run CBS coverage of NBA basketball when WBTV passed on
