NBC And Gray Television Enter Into TV Everywhere Agreement

NBCUniversal and Gray Television announced today that they have entered into an agreement that will expand NBCUniversal's TV Everywhere offering of local NBC linear streams beyond the NBC-owned stations for the first time. The agreement enables Gray to include the live linear simulcasts of its 24 NBC affiliated television stations, including NBC network and local programming, as part of NBC's TV Everywhere mobile and online platforms. NBC previously launched live linear streaming of its NBC-owned television stations on desktop and mobile for customers who have pay-TV subscriptions with participating distributors. "Today's agreement with Gray Television will enable local viewers in Gray's 24 markets to watch those stations' NBC broadcasts live across multiple platforms, including on a computer, tablet or smartphone, both in and out of their homes," said Rhonda Brockmann, SVP of Business Affairs for NBC Affiliate Relations. "We are happy to expand our partnership with Gray to these additional devices and to move together with our affiliates on to new viewing platforms." "We are excited to join NBC in its efforts to reach our viewers on digital and mobile devices," said Kevin Latek, SVP of Business Affairs for Gray Television. "Authenticated viewers in our communities will soon be able to watch their favorite local television stations and favorite local programming live on their desktops and on their mobile devices when they want, and where they want." The agreement covers all 24 Gray-owned NBC affiliates: WSAZ in Charleston-Huntington, West Virginia; WOWT in Omaha, Nebraska; WMTV in Madison, Wisconsin; WNDU in South Bend, Indiana; WITN in Greenville, North Carolina; KSNB in Lincoln, Nebraska; WILX in Lansing, Michigan; KVLY in Fargo, North Dakota; WEAU in Eau Claire, Wisconsin; KFYR, KMOT, KUMV and KQCD in Minot-Bismarck-Dickinson, North Dakota; WJHG in Panama City, Florida; WRGX in Dothan, Alabama; KALB in Alexandria, Louisiana; KGNS in Laredo, Texas; KKCO in Grand Junction, Colorado; KBGF in Great Falls, Montana; WTAP in Parkersburg, West Virginia; KCWY in Casper, Wyoming; KCHY in Cheyenne, Wyoming; KTVH in Helena, Montana; and KNOP in North Platte, Nebraska. Most of Gray's NBC affiliated stations have been partners with the network since the stations first began operation.
