TYPE OF REPORTING PERSON OO (Testamentary Trust) 5 6 SCHEDULE 13D This Amendment No. 29, which relates to shares of Series A Common Stock, $0.01 par value per share ("Series A Common Stock"), of Hearst-Argyle Television, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the "Issuer"), and is being filed jointly by The Hearst Corporation, a Delaware corporation ("Hearst"), Hearst Holdings, Inc., a Delaware corporation ("Hearst Holdings") and wholly-owned subsidiary of Hearst, Hearst Broadcasting, Inc., a Delaware corporation ("Hearst Broadcasting") and wholly-owned subsidiary of Hearst Holdings, and The Hearst Family Trust, a testamentary trust (the "Trust," and together with Hearst, Hearst Holdings and Hearst Broadcasting, the "Reporting Persons"), supplements and amends the statement on Schedule 13D originally filed with the Commission on April 4, 1997 (as amended, the "Statement"). ITEM 3. SOURCE AND AMOUNT OF FUNDS OR OTHER CONSIDERATION. The aggregate amount of funds used by Hearst Broadcasting to acquire the shares reported in Item 5(c) was $71,259,333.50. Hearst Broadcasting used its working capital to make such purchases. ITEM 4. PURPOSE OF THE TRANSACTION. Hearst Broadcasting purchased the additional Securities reported in Item 5(c) of this Statement in order to increase its equity interest in the Issuer. ITEM 5. INTEREST IN SECURITIES OF THE ISSUER. (a) and (b) As of April 20, 2000 the Reporting Persons owned 17,098,542 shares of Series A Common Stock of the Issuer and 41,298,648 shares of Series B Common Stock of the Issuer (collectively, the "Securities"). Each share of Series B Common Stock of the Issuer is immediately convertible into one share of Series A Common Stock of the Issuer. Therefore, the 41,298,648 shares of Series B Common Stock owned directly by Hearst Broadcasting represent, if converted, 41,298,648 shares of Series A Common Stock of the Issuer. Under the definition of "beneficial ownership" as set forth in Rule 13d-3 of the Exchange Act, Hearst Broadcasting, Hearst Holdings, Hearst and the Trust are deemed to have beneficial ownership of each of the combined 58,397,190 shares of the Securities. The Trust, as the owner of all of Hearst's issued and outstanding common stock, may be deemed to have the power to direct the voting of and disposition of the Securities. Hearst, as the owner of all of Hearst Holdings' issued and outstanding common stock, may be deemed to have the power to direct the voting of and disposition of the Securities. Hearst Holdings, as the owner of all of Hearst Broadcasting's issued and outstanding common stock, may be deemed to have the power to direct the voting of and disposition of the Securities. As a result, Hearst Broadcasting, Hearst Holdings, Hearst and the Trust may be deemed to share the power to direct the voting of and the disposition of the Securities. The Securities constitute approximately 63.02% of the combined shares of Series A Common Stock and Series B Common Stock outstanding of the Issuer, based on the number of outstanding shares as of the date hereof, provided to the Reporting Persons by the Issuer. 6 7 (c) Since filing Amendment No. 28 to the Statement, Hearst Broadcasting has made the following purchases of Series A Common Stock of the Issuer pursuant to open market transactions:
