Advisors' Opinion:- [By Dan Caplinger]
The main catalyst for Gannett's rise was its June announcement that it would acquire television broadcaster Belo (NYSE: BLC ) in a $2.2 billion deal. The purchase will add Belo's 20 television stations to Gannett's existing broadcasting portfolio, nearly doubling Gannett's station count to 43, and giving it nine more stations in key top-25 markets. Even though the company paid a 28% premium for Belo, Gannett's stock also soared on the news, rising as much as 35% on hopes that diversifying its media exposure will prevent it from suffering the fate of a declining newspaper industry.
