- Allbritton_Communications_Company abstract "The Allbritton Communications Company is an American media company that owns and operates several broadcast television stations and other media in the United States. Based in Arlington, Virginia, its broadcast stations have been affiliated with the Disney-owned ABC network since 1997. Allbritton also owns Politico, a political journalism organization, and NewsChannel 8, a regional cable television network serving the Washington, D.C. metropolitan area. Allbritton is currently the leading subsidiary of Perpetual Corporation, a private holding company owned by the family of company founder and former Riggs Bank president Joe L. Allbritton. Joe’s son, Robert L. Allbritton, has been the Chairman and CEO of Allbritton Communications since 2001.The company was formed in 1975 when Joe Allbritton bought the media interests of The Washington Star, including its television and radio stations. The Federal Communications Commission required him to sell off either the television or radio properties as a condition of the purchase, and Allbritton opted to sell the radio stations.In May 2013, reports surfaced that Allbritton was planning to sell its television stations; the move came as a result of their declining revenue, and the increasing success of Politico, which "continues to carry no debt, funds all investment with operating income and will still turn a profit, again, in 2013." On July 29, 2013, Sinclair Broadcast Group announced it would acquire all of Allbritton's stations for $985 million.".
