The acquisition increases Gray's television markets to 49 within 28 states and provides Gray with the top-rated and highest grossing television stations in five additional markets.

Gray Television is a television broadcast company headquartered in Atlanta, Georgia, that owns and operates television stations and leading digital assets in markets throughout the United States. Schurz Communications is a Mishawaka, Indiana-based news and information company.

"Acquiring these stations is a transformative moment in Gray's history," said Kevin Latek, senior vice president of business development at Gray. "Having the team from Cooley with such a deep knowledge of the media industry by our side led to a favorable outcome for both parties, a result we are truly grateful for."
