CBS-Fox Duopoly Takes Shape in Traverse City (MI)

CBS-FOX DUOPOLY TAKES SHAPE IN TRAVERSE CITY
[SOURCE: tvnewsday]
Cadillac Telecasting Co. is buying WFQX, the Fox affiliate serving Traverse City-Cadillac, Mich., with the intention of entering into a “shared services agreement” with Heritage Broadcasting Co., under which Heritage will operate the station in tandem with its CBS affiliate in the market, WWTV/WWUP. Since FCC rules prohibit ownership of two stations in small markets like Traverse City, many small-market broadcasters operate so-called duopolies through shared services agreements and other contractual arrangements.
