Time Inc. in the context of WarnerMedia

Warner Media, LLC (doing business as WarnerMedia) was an American multinational mass media and entertainment business owned by AT&T. It was headquartered at the 30 Hudson Yards complex in New York City and primarily operated in filmed entertainment and cable television.

By 1972, Kinney separated its non-media businesses into an independent company, and renamed itself to Warner Communications. After merging with Time Inc., the new company became Time Warner Inc. on January 10, 1990, and kept that name for 28 years. In 2001, AOL merged with Time Warner, in a deal that came to be regarded as the "worst merger in history." Following years of downsizing, Time Warner simply owned Warner Bros., Turner Broadcasting, and HBO by 2014. Despite spinning off Time Inc. that year, it kept the "Time Warner" name until 2018, when it was acquired by AT&T for $108.7 billion and renamed to WarnerMedia.

Time Inc. in the context of KARE (TV)

KARE (channel 11) is a television station licensed to Minneapolis, Minnesota, United States, serving as the NBC affiliate for the Twin Cities area. Owned by Tegna Inc., the station maintains studios on Olson Memorial Highway (MN 55) in Golden Valley and a transmitter at the Telefarm Towers in Shoreview, Minnesota.

Channel 11 began broadcasting on September 1, 1953. It was originally shared by WMIN-TV in St. Paul and WTCN-TV in Minneapolis; the two stations shared an affiliation with ABC and alternated presenting local programs. In 1955, Consolidated Television and Radio bought both stations and merged them as WTCN-TV from the Minneapolis studios in the Calhoun Beach Hotel. The station presented several regionally and nationally notable children's shows in its early years as well as local cooking, news, and sports programs. Time Inc. purchased the station in 1957. Under its ownership, ABC switched its affiliation to KMSP-TV (channel 9), leaving channel 11 to become an independent station that broadcast games of the Minnesota Twins baseball team, movies, and syndicated programs. This continued under two successive owners: Chris-Craft Industries and Metromedia. By the late 1970s, WTCN was one of the nation's most financially successful independent stations.
