 PROFILE
United Television (UTV) loves couch potatoes. The company operates seven TV stations in Arizona, California, Florida, Minnesota, Maryland, Texas, and Utah. Its portfolio includes an ABC affiliate, an NBC affiliate, and five stations affiliated with United Paramount Network (UPN). Because UPN only broadcasts a limited number of hours of programming each week, the company's UPN stations depend heavily on third-party vendors for programming, although UTV is developing its own. The company is 58%-owned by BHC Communications, which in turn is about 80%-owned by Herbert Siegel's Chris-Craft Industries. News Corp., owner of the FOX Television Network, is buying Chris-Craft and its majority-owned affiliates.
