Christian Network to Buy Virginia TV Station

Living Faith Ministries plans to buy Roanoke TV station WDRL. It reaches into the Danville and Lynchburg markets as well. Abingdon-based Living Faith already owns three TV stations: WLFG in Grundy, WLFB in Bluefield, West Virginia and WAGV in Harlan, Kentucky. Liberty University tried to buy the station last year for $6 million but changed its mind when it found lots of FCC violations at WDRL that it would have to fix. Living Faith is paying $5.3 million.
