Nexstar Media Group, which already owns Fox 5 San Diego, is buying KUSI. The acquisition is expected to merge some operations.
Longtime independent news station KUSI will be purchased by media conglomerate Nexstar Media Group for $35 million.
KUSI has been a staple in San Diego for 40 years, covering everything from local high school sports to investigating consumer issues and politics. Longtime KUSI owner McKinnon Broadcasting said in a statement that the purchase would benefit both parties.“We have a great team of news people at KUSI-TV,” wrote the station’s CEO Mike McKinnon in a press release, “and joining these two companies will create one of the most dynamic news organizations in all of Southern California.
“KUSI-TV’s established local news operations serving viewers and advertisers across the San Diego community is a perfect fit with our station group and existing San Diego operations at KSWB-TV ,” wrote Nexstar president Tom Carter, in the news release.
