Hadn't spotted this before: There's an ongoing attempt to effectively merge (but presumably keeping separate signals) for two Boise-area TV stations, KIVI (Channel 6) and KNIN (Channel 9).
The theory under which that could happen is that KNIN is a "failing station" - failing economically, that is.
In our current environment, will we be seeing a lot more of this? [Hat tip to Idaho Radio News.]
