KLBK D.2
Station Profile
KLBK, a CBS affiliate, was acquired in late 2003 as part of Nexstar’s acquisition of Quorum Broadcasting. KLBK benefits from various service agreements with Mission Broadcasting station KAMC, also located in Lubbock. Both stations enhance their revenue share by utilizing sales projects and inventory management. Nexstar has invested in KLBK’s news gathering capabilities, and the station offers live local Doppler radar for severe weather coverage. KLBK’s syndicated programming includes Judge Judy, Who Wants to Be a Millionaire and Judge Joe Brown. KLBK and KAMC will benefit from our operations in other adjacent and similar West Texas markets and can develop strategic marketing partnerships with regional advertisers.
