WSST-TV is a locally-owned independent station in the South-Central Georgia town of Cordele, featuring news and other local programming for the region—more than any other station, plus top-rated syndicated fare, like Extra, Martha Stewart, Entertainment Tonight, The People's Court, Matlock and many more.

Its digital signal only extends 50 miles (80 km) from Cordele, but it's seen on many cable systems in the region, including Albany and Perry. As of May 2007, the WSST-TV digital television facilities had not been upgraded to full-power due to the licensee being in bankruptcy proceedings.[dated info] [1]

On April 15, 2009, WSST-TV closed down its analog signal and began broadcasting only on digital.
