WSRL

WSRL is the TCN affiliated station licensed to Saraland, Alabama, also serving Mobile. It is owned by Confection Broadcasting.
== History ==
WSRL first signed on the air on August 15, 2005, with the inaugural program being a rerun of Taxi. The station originally did not have newscasts (The Insider aired in the 9 p.m. slot, instead of a newscast), but an hour-long 6 a.m. broadcast was added in 2007, when the network's morning show, TCN News This Morning, premiered. An hour-long primetime newscast joined it the following year, with a weekend edition being introduced in 2010.
The station is notable for its news-reliant format. Currently, the station's morning newscast Good Day Gulf Coast airs from 4 a.m. to 7 a.m., with a midday edition airing from 10:30 a.m to noon. Other newscasts, under the brand TV-9 News, air at 3 p.m., 4 p.m., 5 p.m., 6 p.m., 9 p.m., and 10 p.m., with weekend editions of Good Day as well as the 5 p.m., 6 p.m., and 9 p.m. broadcasts (the 6 p.m. news does not air on Sundays). Syndicated programming on WSRL includes Tamron Hall, Last Man Standing, and, beginning in fall 2021, Nick Cannon. The station airs Supermarket Sweep and Before You Go in reverse order, taking the "live" East Coast feed of Supermarket Sweep, but airing Before You Go on a one-hour delay.
