Atlanta’s CBS programming will move from Channel 46 (WANF-TV) to Channel 69 (WUPA), marking WUPA’s first time carrying CBS in its over 40-year history.
WANF-TV, which did not renew its CBS affiliation, will now operate as an independent station.
Comcast, Charter, U-Verse, and DirecTV viewers can tune to Channel 69. CBS programming is also available via the Paramount+ app.
What’s airing on WUPA:
The station will broadcast national CBS shows like “CBS Mornings,” “CBS Evening News,” “Matlock,” “Tracker,” “Big Brother,” and “Hollywood Squares.” Sports coverage includes NFL Sunday games, the Masters, PGA Championship, men’s college basketball, and WNBA games. Local weather updates will be integrated into “CBS Mornings” starting August 18, with full local news coverage launching in September.

WANF-TV, previously CBS46, ended its CBS affiliation to become independent, allowing owner Gray Media to control its schedule and expand local news. Gray’s chief legal officer, Kevin Latek, noted during a recent earnings call that CBS was expected to shift its affiliation to its owned station, WUPA, especially with the Super Bowl coming to Atlanta in February 2027.
