WBNB (channel 10) is a television station in Charlotte Amalie, on the island of Saint Thomas in the United States Virgin Islands.
== History ==
WBNB-TV has the heritage of being the first television station to operate in the Virgin Islands. Its construction permit was secured in 1960 by a pair of New York City-area radio men, Robert Noble and Robert Moss, who shared equal ownership in Island Teleradio Service, Inc., the original licensee of WBNB-TV and sister station WBNB radio (1000 AM, now WVWI). Shortly after the award, newspaper announcements proudly announced that the station would be affiliated with CBS and NBC, and would also carry programs from National Educational Television. The station began operations on July 22, 1961. The WBNB stations were split up in 1970, as channel 10 was sold to the first of several U.S. mainland-based operators At that point, the Moss/Noble partnership ended when Bob Noble retained sole ownership in the radio outlet, purchasing its remaining shares from Bob Moss and other minority partners. 
In September 1989 Hurricane Hugo destroyed WBNB-TV's transmitter and Benedek Broadcasting, who acquired the station three years earlier, chose not to rebuild the facilities immediately for financial reasons. Not willing to give up on the station, John Sulu decided to form Sulu Broadcasting and rebuilt the facilities. During the time of the rebuilding, the Virgin Islands were getting CBS programming from WUSI for about 2 and half months before WBNB returned back on the air on December 4, 1989. Sulu Broadcasting continued to own the station until 2000, when Sulu sold the station to Tribune Media for $2 billion dollars. As part of the agreement, WBNB kept their CBS affiliation.
