History

Built by the Trinity Broadcasting Network as an analog station in 1986, the station was sold to Enlace Christian Television in 2009, Craig A. Ruark, LLC in July 2021, and to LVNV Broadcasting Company, LLC in April 2022.

On September 26, 2022, NEWSnet's parent company Bridge Media Networks (backed by 5-hour Energy creator Manoj Bhargava) announced it would acquire KDNU-LD for $900,000.[1] Upon the completion of the transaction, Bridge would make KDNU-LD the first NEWSnet owned-and-operated station in the West Coast (ironically, Scott Centers, the station's then-current owner, is also the Vice President of Broadcast Division at NEWSnet). The sale was consummated on November 16.[2]
