Turner is handing over national ad sales for its WPCH-TV Atlanta to Katz's Millennium Sales & Marketing, according to the rep firm.

WPCH is the former WTBS, Turner's flagship TV station that morphed into Superstation WTBS before returning to its local-station roots when the cable channel was spun off into a separate entity. At the same time, WTBS the TV station was rechristened WPCH after Atlanta's famous Peachtree Street.

The station had been repped in-house, according to a Millennium spokesperson.

The station is adding off-NBC My Name Is Earl and The Office next year and already has Seinfeld and King of Queens for Millennium to sell national ad time in.
