WALE-LD (channel 17) is a low-power television station in Montgomery, Alabama, United States. It is owned by Allen Media Broadcasting alongside Fox affiliate WCOV-TV (channel 20) and Troy-licensed Cozi TV affiliate WIYC (channel 48). The three stations share studios on WCOV Avenue in the Normandale section of Montgomery, where WALE-LD's transmitter is also located.
On December 15, 2021, it was announced that Allen Media Group, a subsidiary of Los Angeles–based Entertainment Studios, would purchase WALE-LD, WCOV-TV and WIYC from Woods Communications Corporation for $28.5 million;[1] the sale was completed on April 14, 2023.[3]
At some point in 2022, the station dropped True Crime Network from its main channel and switched to a 24-hour local weather format, known as the Montgomery Weather Channel.[4]
