User blog:Cbcarter34/WB News, America's Talking announce Merger

Today, Capital Cities (owners of The WB News) announced that they've sold the network to ONE Media Group, which will merge The WB News into their own network, America's Talking. "After careful consideration, it was decided that The WB shouldn't have it's own news network, so we decided to sell The WB News and just shift our focus to running The WB following the WB/WBTV merger next month. We're thrilled that ONE Media Group made the purchase and even though The WB News will be no more, we know that what's left of The WB News will be a great asset towards America's Talking," Captial Cities CEO Frank Smith, Jr., said. America's Talking GM Isaac Tanner has scheduled a news conference later on in the day and will give his opinion then.

When asked what brought ther merger around, Smith simply said talk to Tanner, and he will explain it all, although he did admit that Graham Media Group, which purchased QTV News and changed it to Graham News, did play a hand in his decision to sell the news channel.
