With the amount of problems going on with stock price, smaller profits, etc. within Journal Communications, it is a prime time for a takeover bid of Journal Broadcast Group from Journal Communications.  As many as 9 broadcast companies would find potential interest in some or all of the TV and Radio stations choices that Journal Broadcast Group offers.  The possible takeover companies are Barrington Broadcasting Group, Fisher Communications, Granite Broadcasting, Hubbard Broadcasting, Lin TV, Media General, Meridith Broadcasting, New Vision Television and Young Broadcasting.  So far no takeover bids have been made yet though this is probably the best move for the Journal Broadcast Group stations.
