LINGray? GrayLIN?

Trusted sources say there are talks afoot of a merger between LIN Television and Gray TV. With LIN’s market cap of around $680 million, it would presumably hold the upper hand in the marriage (Gray’s cap is $438 million). 

Gray boss Bob Prather tells us there’s absolutely "no truth to that." 

Hmmm.
