KJPT

(channel 27) is a television station in Paleto Bay, San Andreas, United States affiliated with Fox and is owned by Tegna Inc..
==History==
Originally signed on the air on April 17, 1973, the station was first owned by the Joplin Telecasting Company as Paleto Bay's second independent station after KTOG (channel 41, now a CW affiliate). Renaissance Broadcasting would later purchase KJPT in 1988 after selling NBC affiliate WPCQ (channel 36) in Charlotte, North Carolina to the Providence Journal Company.
===Tribune ownership===
On July 1, 1996, Chicago-based Tribune Broadcasting announced that it would acquire Renaissance Communications, by that time the largest non-network owner of Fox affiliates, for $1.13 billion.
===Aborted sale to Sinclair===
Sinclair Broadcast Group, which has owned NBC affiliate KNBP-DT since 2014, entered into an agreement to acquire Tribune Media on May 8, 2017, for $3.9 billion, plus the assumption of $2.7 billion in Tribune debt. The deal received significant scrutiny over Sinclair's forthrightness in its applications to sell certain conflict properties, prompting the FCC to designate it for hearing and leading Tribune to terminate the deal and sue Sinclair for breach of contract.
===Tegna ownership===
In the wake of the collapse of the Sinclair deal, Tribune agreed to sell itself to Nexstar Media Group for $6.4 billion. Nexstar already owns two stations in San Andreas—Las Venturas-based Central affiliate KCDO-TV and Grapeseed-based NBC affiliate KGRP-TV—requiring that it divest either KCDO or KGRP. On March 20, 2019, Tegna Inc. announced it would enter the state and purchase KJPT from Nexstar upon consummation of the merger as part of the company's sale of many Nexstar- and Tribune-operated stations to Tegna and the E. W. Scripps Company in separate deals worth $1.32 billion. The sale was completed on September 19, 2019.
