Merger is the word at COX

Call it a sale or call it a merger, COX is divesting a portion of the 100% stake it holds in its television stations. COX terms it more of a merge with a larger company. Put it this way, you remember as a kid that sharing anything, like a candy bar, with an older sibling, if you didn’t get the first bite, you ended up on the short end. My brother used to say, “I will share this milkshake with you, my half is in the bottom, I’ll have mine first.” Well, all of it ended up on the bottom of the cup as he continued to sip on that chocolate shake.
Bottom line is, things are about to change at KIRO 7.
There is also the buyout of KCPQ 13 by FOX. That has been in the works and will happen, despite the Sinclair-Tribune fiasco.
