WBNS-TV (channel 10) is a television station in Columbus, Ohio, United States, affiliated with CBS. It is owned by the Tegna subsidiary of Nexstar Media Group alongside two radio stations, WBNS (1460 AM) and WBNS-FM (97.1); Nexstar also owns NBC affiliate WCMH-TV (channel 4). The WBNS stations share studios on Twin Rivers Drive west of Downtown Columbus, where WBNS-TV's transmitter is also located.

WBNS-TV also serves as the CBS affiliate of record for the nearby Zanesville, Ohio, market.

Before its purchase in August 2019 by Tegna, WBNS-TV was the flagship station of founding owner Dispatch Broadcast Group, whose operations also included WTHR, the NBC affiliate in Indianapolis, and WALV-CD, Indianapolis' MeTV outlet and an alternate NBC affiliate; all of Dispatch's stations were with Tegna.
