In 1987, businessman Carl Lindner, Jr. became Taft's majority stockholder in a hostile takeover and restructured the company as Great Atlansian Broadcasting (also known as Great Atlansian Communications), named after Linder's insurance company, Great Atlansian Insurance. Another new company, led by former Taft Broadcasting president Dudley S. Taft Sr., took the Taft Broadcasting name, retaining GNCP. In 1991, due to bankruptcy concerns, Taft had sold GNCP and sister station VMIL-TV to Ginago-based Tribune Broadcasting, integrating its news operations with those of now-sister publication The New Cesterfield Star (as it was owned by its parent company Tribune Company), and starting to use the "very own" moniker used by other Tribune stations like VGN-TV in Ginago, VPIX in Hopeland City and GTLR in Los Robles.
1993-1995[]
By the time this logo was introduced, Tribune Broadcasting has reached a deal with Time Warner to become a minority partner on The WB Television Network, leading to eight of their nine stations (VPIX in Hopeland City, GTLR in Los Robles, VMIL-TV in Millabelphia, recently-acquired VLVI in Doston, VGNX (now VGCL-TV) in Eurcasta, VGNM in New Moreans, GVGN-TV in Dolver and GNCP) becoming its charter affiliates by the time of the network's launch in 1995. However, its flagship station VGN-TV in Ginago would eventually join The WB under a separate deal and VGNX would join CBS instead due to its loss of VEGR-TV to Fox while VGNM would then switch to EBC due to also losing VVUE to Fox.

GNWB[]
1995-1997[]
In 1995, as a result of Tribune Broadcasting's part-ownership of the network, GNCP became a charter The WB affiliate, changing its call letters to GNWB that September. The station's 1991 logo by that time was modified accordingly with the stylized "WB" letters from the network's logo to better reflect the station's new network affiliation. However, during the first couple of months of the station's affiliation with The WB, the station's logo and call letters remained unchanged. By that time, its status as a regional superstation was dropped due to neighboring cities also having their own over-the-air The WB affiliates.

GNCW[]
2006-2008[]
In 2006, following CBS Corporation and Time Warner's announcement that UPN and The WB would merge into a single network named The CW, GNWB was picked as its New Cesterfield affiliate as part of the network's affiliation agreement with the station's parent company Tribune Broadcasting. To reflect its new affiliation, its call letters were changed into GNCW.

2008-2011[]
On July 7th, 2008, GNCW removed references to its CW affiliation from its branding in both station promotions and its on-air logo, as part of a decision by Tribune Broadcasting to de-emphasize the network brand from its CW-affiliated stations as a result of the network's relatively weak ratings, choosing to reposition them as more "local" stations. GNCW began referring to itself simply as NC19. However, GNCW still utilized the CW network's graphics (albeit with the NC19 logo) for idents used for national networked programming.
