Hearst-Argyle Television, Inc., is a broadcasting company in the United States . Hearst-Argyle is majority-owned by the New York City -based Hearst Corporation , and holds joint ventures in television production with NBC Universal Television Distribution , has an Internet partnership with Internet Broadcasting Systems, Inc. , and trades on the New York Stock Exchange under the symbol "HTV." The Hearst Corporation is looking to purchase the remainder of Hearst-Argyle outright, which would make it a wholly-owned subsidiary of the parent company. Hearst-Argyle was formed in the late-1990s with the merger of Hearst Corporation's broadcasting division and stations owned by Argyle Television Holdings II, which is partially related to the company of the same name who (in 1994 ) sold its stations to New World Communications , stations that eventually became Fox -owned stations. Hearst-Argyle is the second-largest NBC affiliate owner and the largest ABC affiliate group in terms of audience reach. TELEVISION STATIONS OWNED/OPERATED BY HEARST-ARGYLE Currently, a total of 26 stations, comprising of: ten NBC affiliates, twelve ABC stations, two CBS affiliates, one CW affiliate and one MyNetworkTV affiliate. The company also manages one ABC station, one CW affiliate and one Independent station — all owned by Hearst-Argyle's majority owner Hearst Corporation. The company also manages two Radio stations, also owned by Hearst.
