He Spirit got a part-time job in a local supermarket and was doing okay. But he developed spinal stenosis and was unable to work. He sold his home and bought a smaller, one-story house that was simpler to maintain and made it easier to get around. Progressing age brought more debilitating health. He was diagnosed with stage-four chronic kidney disease. Still, he remained active and positive. Even though he was in his late 70s, he went to the senior center with his girlfriend every weekend. As his condition worsened, the medical bills and special-care costs piled up. The Broadcasters Foundation of America began providing a monthly grant to help with the expenses. He is now in his 80s, and his 77-year-old girlfriend, who is fighting lung cancer, visits him every day to help with the household chores. Their indomitable spirit carries on. He recently told us: “As you know by now, I could not make it…or still be alive…without your help. God bless you all.” this message was made possible by the McCormick Foundation journalism program 2012 Broadcasters Foundation of America Contributors 2012 Guardian Fund $50,000 and Over Robert & Marjie Bennett Foundation Broadcasting & Cable Taishoff Foundation $25,000 and $30,000 Cambridge Financial Services Inc.

  • Sinclair Broadcast Group Closes on Acquisition of Barrington Stations
    Contact: David Amy, EVP & CFO, Sinclair Lucy Rutishauser, VP & Treasurer, Sinclair (410) 568-1500 SINCLAIR BROADCAST GROUP CLOSES ON ACQUISITION OF BARRINGTON STATIONS BALTIMORE (November 25, 2013) -- Sinclair Broadcast Group, Inc. (Nasdaq: SBGI) (the “Company” or “Sinclair”) announced today that it closed on its previously announced acquisition of 18 television stations owned by Barrington Broadcasting Group, LLC (“Barrington”) for $370.0 million and entered into agreements to operate or provide sales services to another six stations. The 24 stations are located in 15 markets and reach 3.4% of the U.S. TV households. The acquisition was funded through cash on hand. As previously discussed, due to FCC ownership conflict rules, Sinclair sold its station in Syracuse, NY, WSYT (FOX), and assigned its local marketing agreement (“LMA”) and purchase option on WNYS (MNT) in Syracuse, NY to Bristlecone Broadcasting. The Company also sold its station in Peoria, IL, WYZZ (FOX) to Cunningham Broadcasting Corporation (“CBC”). In addition, the license assets of three stations were purchased by CBC (WBSF in Flint, MI and WGTU/WGTQ in Traverse City/Cadillac, MI) and the license assets of two stations were purchase by Howard Stirk Holdings (WEYI in Flint, MI and WWMB in Myrtle Beach, SC) to which Sinclair will provide services pursuant to shared services and joint sales agreements. Following its acquisition by Sinclair, WSTM (NBC) in Syracuse, NY, will continue to provide services to WTVH (CBS), which is owned by Granite Broadcasting, and receive services on WHOI in Peoria, IL from Granite Broadcasting. Sinclair has, however, notified Granite Broadcasting that it does not intend to renew these agreements in these two markets when they expire in March of 2017.
