KXXV Channel 25 in Waco sold

The television news business has just been shaken up as my old Station in Waco has been sold:

Dallas based London Broadcasting Company Inc. has purchased KXXV-TV, along with three sister stations, in a package deal from Drewry Communications based in Lawton, Oklahoma. The acquisition includes Telemundo affiliates at all four stations and a Spanish-language radio station in Midland.
Officially announced today, the sale includes KFDA-TV (CBS) in Amarillo, KSWO-TV (ABC) in Lawton, Oklahoma, and KWES-TV (NBC) in Midland-Odessa, along with KXXV News Channel 25 in Waco-Temple-Killeen. London Broadcasting acquired its first station in February, purchasing KYTX-TV in Tyler, and now has properties in five Texas mid-size markets. Terry E. London, a former CEO and President of Gaylord Entertainment, is the President of London Broadcasting Company. READ THE REST
