Gray Media, doing business as Gray Television, Inc., operates an extensive network of local television stations and digital platforms across the United States. The company’s broadcast portfolio offers a mix of network-affiliated programming—ranging from national news and entertainment from ABC, CBS, NBC and Fox—to locally produced content including news, sports and weather coverage. In addition to traditional broadcast, Gray Media provides digital advertising, streaming and over-the-top solutions through its websites, mobile apps and branded digital marketplaces.
Established in 1946 as Gray Communications Systems, the company went public in 2006 and adopted the Gray Television name in 2010. It has expanded its footprint through strategic acquisitions, most notably the merger with Raycom Media in 2019, which added stations and markets to its portfolio and enhanced its digital capabilities. This growth strategy has enabled Gray Media to enter new markets and strengthen its presence in both major metropolitan areas and smaller regional centers.
Gray Media operates in more than 100 markets across the United States, delivering content to audiences in top-50 Designated Market Areas as well as mid-sized and rural regions. Its local stations typically maintain affiliations with major national networks, allowing the company to offer a blend of nationally recognized programming alongside its own community-focused reporting and special-interest features.
Headquartered in Atlanta, Georgia, Gray Media is led by Chairman and Chief Executive Officer Hilton Howell Jr., who has guided the company through several acquisition phases and overseen the expansion of its digital platforms. The leadership team emphasizes a commitment to local journalism and community engagement, positioning Gray Media as a key provider of news, sports and entertainment in the regions it serves.
