The staff announcement yesterday noted KTRK and other Disney ABC Television Group owned stations (like WABC, KABC, WLS, WPVI...etc.), will outsource master control operations to Encompass Digital Media, Inc. in Atlanta.
The NBC owned and operated stations started doing the same with Encompass back in 2011.
The change is expected to start in September along with a rumored ABC O&O traffic department hub in Philadelphia.
No word on how many jobs will be cut at the local stations as a result.
