PROFILE |
 |
BHC Communications faced its own "Smackdown!" while wrestling over the future of the United Paramount Network (UPN). BHC owns six VHF and four UHF television stations (most carry UPN programming) through wholly owned subsidiaries Chris-Craft Television and Pinelands, and 58%-owned United Television. Former UPN partner Viacom exercised a clause in its contract and offered either to buy all of UPN, or sell its half-interest to BHC for just $5 million. Pinned between financing UPN's red-stained accounts by itself or selling its 50% stake for peanuts, BHC sold. Chris-Craft Industries, which has agreed to be acquired by FOX owner News Corp., owns about 80% of BHC.
