Lockwood Broadcast Group to Acquire WCWG

By Merrill Knox 

Lockwood Broadcast Group is acquiring WCWG, the CW affiliate in Greensboro, N.C., from Titan Broadcasting.

“We are excited to own a station in the Greensboro DMA, and feel WCWG is a perfect fit for Lockwood Broadcasting,” president Dave Hanna said in a statement. “Growth is our mode — we’ve now doubled in size since 2011 — and we will continue to seek out and acquire television properties that complement our business.”

Terms of the deal were not disclosed. The transaction is pending FCC approval and is expected to close later this year.
