Broadcast television mega mergers have paved the way for a few enormous corporations to dominate the local television landscape. A handful of corporations control a majority of local television news outlets in America. Still, there are smaller corporations that are not only surviving, but thriving.

News Press and Gazette is a private, family owned company company operating in ten medium and small markets.
