One less Equity station on G10 soon. From the Fisher Communications website...

SEATTLE--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Nov. 3, 2006--Fisher Communications, Inc. (Nasdaq:FSCI) announced that it completed the purchase of two television stations from Equity Broadcasting Corporation for $19.3 million on November 1, 2006. The stations include KPOU in La Grande, Oregon, and KPOU LP in Portland, Oregon, which provide Hispanic programming to the Portland, Oregon, market through an affiliation with Univision.

Full Release Here

Aside: Fisher's been building up a nice Univision portfolio in the region. Just this summer they bought out Seattle's ShopNBC relay (KWOG), changed the call letters to KUNS-TV as of this week, and will make the switch to UNI January 1st.
