Exhibits
Exhibit 5
Description: BASIS FOR CERTIFICATION

THE STATION WAS LISTED IN THE APPENDIX TO THE FCCS PUBLIC NOTICE RELEASED ON FEBRUARY 11, 2009, FCC 09-7, AND THE INSTANT CERTIFICATION STATES THAT THE STATION WILL TURN OFF ANALOG SERVICE ON FEBRUARY 17, 2009 IN COMPLIANCE WITH THE PUBLIC INTEREST CONDITIONS SET FORTH IN THE PUBLIC NOTICE.

LICENSEES CERTIFICATION IS BASED ON ANOTHER NETWORK AFFILIATE IN THE MARKET (WITH SUBSTANTIALLY THE SAME ANALOG SERVICE AREA) AGREEING TO CONTINUE ANALOG OPERATION UNTIL JUNE 12, 2009 AND NOT TERMINATE ANALOG SERVICE ON FEBRUARY 17, 2009. UNDER THESE CIRCUMSTANCES, THE STATION NO LONGER FITS THE CRITERIA FOR BEING LISTED ON THE APPENDIX TO THE FEBRUARY 11TH PUBLIC NOTICE.
