In October 2019, RBR+TVBR was first to report on the sale of a full-power digital TV station licensed to a small town in New York’s Adirondack Mountains that is poised to become a Burlington, Vt.-Plattsburgh, N.Y. DMA sibling to a big CBS affiliate with reach into Montreal and much of Quebec.
That deal has now closed, with the FCC giving Gray Television a waiver for the ownership of two full-power properties serving much of Vermont and a big swath of New York’s most northern counties.
