Shareholders Approve Media General, LIN Deal

[dfergie]

Media General, Inc. and LIN Media shareholders gave the thumbs up to their pending $1.6 billion merger in separately held meetings Monday.
Media General and LIN announced their deal in March. After certain divestitures, the combined company will own or operate 71 TV stations in 48 markets across the country, reaching 27.6 million or 24% of U.S. television households. The deal still needs approval from the Federal Communications Commission.

Depends on the market and if Media General already owned a station there in the market before this.
If its a new market for them I really don't see anything changing
