Sinclair CEO Chris Ripley said in a statement that the deal will help the company focus on providing stronger premium sports programming.
The deal still requires approval from the Department of Justice, which had demanded that Disney divest the networks when it bought television and film assets from Twenty-First Century Fox for $71 billion. The boards of both Sinclair and Disney have unanimously approved the deal.
Sinclair’s purchase does not include the YES Network, which carries Brooklyn Nets and New York Yankees games.
