With the approval, the companies will spend the next few days finalizing the deal with completion expected to take place sometime in the near future.

The sale, announced in March, is part of a complicated stock swap between the two companies.

WPLG has been part of Graham Holdings since 1969 when the Graham family purchased the station to become part of Post-Newsweek Stations.
