WTNH-TV, or simply WTNH, was established in 1948 by a group that included former Governor of Connecticut, John Davis Lodge. The station was created as Connecticut's first television station. The channel changed hands multiple times over the years and is now owned by Nexstar Media Group, one of the largest television broadcasting companies in the United States.Based in New Haven, Connecticut, WTNH provides comprehensive coverage on a range of topics including Local and National News, Politics, Health, Sports, and Entertainment. The station's location in the heart of Connecticut allows it to focus on stories that directly impact the state and its local communities.**One interesting fact**: WTNH was the first television station in all of New England to use a helicopter for newsgathering, and it was one of the first in the country to do so as well. The station's helicopter, known as "Chopper 8," gave WTNH a unique advantage in covering breaking news and providing traffic reports from the sky, particularly during the early years of its adoption.
WTNH is ranked 3,987 among other media sources and has an average of 1,957,000 monthly visits according to Similar Web.
