KBSD channel 6 is a CBS affiliate based in Dodge City, Kansas and serves the southwestern Kansas portion of the Wichita TV market; also serving part of the Oklahoma panhandle (part of the Amarillo market). It is owned by Schurz Communications.

KBSD is part of the Kansas Broadcasting System (KBS) network of CBS affiliates, repeating the signal of KWCH-TV in Wichita, Kansas, with local advertising and news inserts.

On April 6, 2006, previous owner Media General announced that, in addition to acquiring four NBC owned-and-operated stations, Media General will be selling four of its TV stations. KWCH (including its satellites, which all count as one station) was one of them [1]; a deal has been made for them to be sold to Schurz, who completed the acquisition on September 25, 2006. [2] [3]
