WBNA is the ION Television affiliate in Louisville, Kentucky. It is owned by Word Broadcasting Network, Inc., an arm of Evangel World Prayer Center in Louisville. Its transmitter is located near Shepherdsville, Kentucky.
The station signed on in the late 1980s as an independent station offering mostly religious programs and old movies. It was Louisville's original WB affiliate in 1995, but frequently preempted The WB's racier programming. The station, seeking more family friendly programming, decided to drop the WB affiliation and go with the new family oriented PAX network that launched in 1998. Pax is now known as the ION Television network.
