21st Century Fox Finalizing Deal With Sinclair to Acquire Six TV stations (EXCLUSIVE)
Hat tip, DCRTV.com Mailbag for February 22: http://www.dcrtv.com/mailbag.html
21st Century Fox is said to be buying six television stations from Sinclair Broadcasting Group: “The deal is understood to encompass Tribune-owned Fox affiliates in five markets — Seattle, Denver, Salt Lake City, Sacramento, and Cleveland — and Tribune’s CW affiliate that serves the Miami market. The pact also ensures the Sinclair will lock in long-term Fox Broadcasting Co. affiliation deals for dozens of other stations it owns that are currently Fox affiliates.” More from Variety: variety.com (2/22/18)
