Media Production - Santa Ana, California, United States
KDOC was initially owned by locally-based Golden Orange Broadcasting, whose investors included entertainer Pat Boone. KDOC has been on the air since 1982, and was the 5th independent television station in Los Angeles. It was the home of conservative commentator Wally George and televangelist Dr. Gene Scott until their deaths. During this period, the station was also popular for weekend broadcasts of Asian programming, which gained a significant non-Asian audience with the broadcast of the 1984–1985Japanese Miyamoto Musashi television series. On April 4, 2006, Bert Ellis along with Anaheim Ducks owners Henry Samueli and his wife Susan bought KDOC for $149.5 million from Golden Orange Broadcasting. The sale closed in May 2006 and is currently licensed to Ellis Communications, Inc., a subsidiary of Titan Broadcast Management, Atlanta, GA.
