Our Perspective on Gray Television and Raycom Media combining

AMARILLO, TX (KFDA) - Our corporate ownership announced Monday that Gray Television and Raycom Media are combining in a $3.6 billion transaction.

This marks a transition date in time where Gray and Raycom's merger creates a leading media company with nationwide scale and a single largest ownership of top rated local television stations and digital assets in the country.

In today's world of expansion and competition, our industry is constantly working on ways to stay ahead and deliver services at the highest level to you, our viewers.

Here is a map of the properties that will combine at the end of the year to form the expanded company. As you can see, this is a great match geographically and culturally as our companies share very similar approaches to serving their employees and local communities.
