The station is owned by Saga Communications, through licensee Saga Communications of Tuckessee, LLC, and operates as part of its Five Star Media Group.[3]

Two local programs are broadcast: Good Morning Clarksville (Monday-Friday, 6-9 AM) and SportsTalk with Justin Swallows (Monday-Friday, 3-6 PM). The station also carries most Clarksville Academy high school football and boys' basketball games. In addition to local offerings, WNZE serves as an affiliate of the University of Tennessee Vol Network for football and both men's and women's basketball.[4] For decades, the station was an affiliate of the Atlanta Braves Radio Network but dropped the affiliation before the 2018 baseball season.
