Company: Hearst Television Inc.
Industry: Television Station Groups
Website: http://www.hearsttelevision.com

One might wonder whether or not Hearst Television ever shows "Citizen Kane" on its stations. The company is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Hearst Corporation (Hearst family patriarch William Randolph Hearst was the inspiration for the 1941 film). It is one of the leading TV groups in the US with about 30 stations (both owned and managed) serving more than two dozen markets around the country.
