Not a surprise at all. It seemed inevitable that Gray would buy another station in Maine given that it seemed ridiculous to have WAGM all by itself. Will be interesting to see if Gray makes WAGM a semi-satellite of WABI or let's it continue to be it's own station. The plus side to this is that WABI and WCJB will now finally have a decent graphics package.

Brian Williams and Katy Tur called out WJLA for giving Trump a softball question at a press conference http://www.ftvlive.com/sqsp-test/2017/2/14/nbcs-brian-williams-katy-tur-call-out-sinclair-station -
It isn't a conspiracy that Donald Trump is extremely unpopular and that his inauguration was the least attended in years, IT IS A FACT. Stop being so sensitive about this fact, you're being as childish and petty as Trump

Ah yes. The entire media is conspiring against the poor GOP and Donald Trump. Fox News exists because facts have a well known liberal bias, Republicans need alternative facts in order to fit their own narrative

I honestly don't know why anyone would hire someone who used to work for RT

I don't mean in the spectrum action. I mean selling it to anyone. looks like Daystar and TBN don't have stations in the area.

They can easily solve their cap problems by selling or shutting down KRON and KASW.

Sinclair has decided to run a hit piece against the Washington Post in response to the Post's reporting that Sinclair was in the tank for Trump. Of course Sinclair completely ignored the fact that the Post only reported on it because Trump's son-in-law said that Sinclair was favorable to Trump. http://www.ftvlive.com/sqsp-test/2017/1/5/sinclair-runs-hit-piece-on-the-washington-post -
Greta on MSNBC is surprising. I thought she'd go to CNN or HLN

this isn't surprising at all. During the last months of the campaign the only non-Fox interviews Donald would give would be to Sinclair stations and or to the Sinclair produced show "full measure" -
I find it odd that you consider yourself a local TV "activist" yet praise Perry Sook any time you can. If you really were an "activist" you'd hate Sook just like everyone else in the industry.
