WFDC-DT, virtual channel 14 (UHF digital channel 15) is a Univision owned-and-operated television station licensed to Arlington, Virginia and serving Washington, District of Columbia. The station is owned by Univision Communications and managed by Entravision Communications; this makes WFDC a sister station to UniMás affiliate WMDO-CD (channel 47). The two stations share studios located in Washington, and its transmitter is located in the Tenleytown section of Washington's northwest quadrant.

On cable, the station is carried on Xfinity channel 14 in the Washington area and on channel 11 in Baltimore (the latter market's NBC affiliate, WBAL-TV, broadcasts over-the-air on channel 11, but is carried on channel 21 due to signal issues).

Channel 14 first signed on as WOOK on March 6, 1963 as the first television station in the country aimed at the African-American demographic. WOOK's claim to fame was their teen-oriented dance show called Teenarama, which featured big-name acts such as James Brown and Marvin Gaye. In 1969, the station changed its call letters, to WFAN-TV (the WFAN call letters are now used on a radio station at 660 AM in New York City). From 1968 to 1972, channel 14 was the sister station to WMET (channel 24) in Baltimore, Maryland. Both stations were owned by United Broadcasting.
