WYTV sold to Parkin Television

By Tom Lavery

Youngstown: The FCC has given it's thumbs up regarding the sale of WYTV 33 (DT 33-1) to Parkin Television for $15.5 million. Ohio Media Watch reports that the sale went through despite a request by the NABET union to block the sale. Parkin will oversee operations for WYTV, MyYTV (DT 33-2), Weather (DT 33.3), as well as New Vision stations WKBN 27 (DT 27-1), WYFX 62 & WFXI 17 (DT 27-2.) Parkin owner Todd Parkin promises that WYTV & WKBN will have separate newsrooms. Yeah, and the Pirates' are a safe bet to win the World Series.
