- WDAZ-TV (channel 8) is a television station licensed to Devils Lake, North Dakota, United States, serving the Grand Forks area as an affiliate of ABC. It is owned by the Forum Communications Company, which also owns the Grand Forks Herald. WDAZ-TV's news bureau and advertising sales office are located on South Washington Street in Grand Forks, and its transmitter is located near Dahlen, North Dakota. Despite Devils Lake being WDAZ-TV's city of license, the station maintains no physical presence there. Although identifying as a separate station in its own right, WDAZ-TV is considered a semi-satellite of sister station and company flagship WDAY-TV (channel 6) in Fargo, which operates two other semi-satellites: KBMY (channel 17) in Bismarck and KMCY (channel 14) in Minot, which itself is a semi-satellite of KBMY. As such, WDAZ-TV simulcasts all network and syndicated programming as provided by WDAY-TV, and the two stations share a website. However, WDAZ-TV airs separate commercial inserts and legal identifications. Local newscasts, produced by WDAY-TV, are simulcast on both stations. WDAZ-TV serves the northern half of the Fargo–Grand Forks market while WDAY-TV serves the southern portion. The two stations are counted as a single unit for ratings purposes. Internal operations are based at WDAY-TV's studios on South 8th Street in Fargo. WDAZ-TV is widely carried on cable in the Canadian province of Manitoba (including Winnipeg, Portage la Prairie, Selkirk, Steinbach and Winkler), and in Kenora, Ontario. (en)
