Gray Media Expands Portfolio in $50 Million Acquisition
Gray Media is set to absorb six television stations from American Spirit Media for a total of $50 million, cementing a deal that expands the broadcaster’s footprint across half a dozen states. The initial phase of the transaction closed Wednesday, with Gray assuming local management duties for the new assets.
This acquisition deepens existing ties between the two companies. Gray has provided back-office infrastructure to five of the stations for over a decade, while also producing local news content for four of them. Leadership at Gray indicated the move is designed to scale their operations within these specific regional markets.
