Acquisitions Investments and Dispositions [Abstract]
Acquisitions Investments and Dispositions	Acquisitions and dispositions In March 2014, Classified Ventures, in which we own a 26.9% interest, agreed to sell Apartments.com to CoStar Group, Inc. for $585 million. This transaction closed on April 1, 2014, early in our second quarter; as a result of our ownership stake, we received a special $154.6 million distribution from Classified Ventures after the closing of this transaction. Early in the second quarter, our subsidiary CareerBuilder acquired Broadbean. Broadbean is a leading international job distribution, candidate sourcing and big data analytics software company. Broadbean is headquartered in London, United Kingdom and has offices in the U.S., France, Germany, the Netherlands and Australia. The acquisition unites two technology companies which specialize in sourcing and recruitment. On February 28, 2014, we completed the previously announced sale of KMOV-TV in St. Louis, MO, to Meredith Corporation, following the receipt of regulatory approvals. As part of the sale, Sander Media conveyed to Meredith Corporation substantially all of its assets used to operate KMOV-TV, which Sander Media acquired when the Gannett-Belo transaction closed on December 23, 2013. We conveyed certain other assets that are needed to provide services to KMOV-TV, which we also acquired from Belo Corp. On June 19, 2014, we announced, together with Sander Media LLC, that we completed the previously announced sale of KTVK-TV and KASW-TV in Phoenix, AZ, to Meredith Corporation, following receipt of regulatory approvals. As part of the sale, Sander Media conveyed to Meredith all of the assets used in the operation of both stations, which Sander Media acquired upon completion of the Belo transaction last December 2013. We also conveyed certain other assets that we used to provide services for both stations, which were also acquired from the Belo transaction. At the closing, Meredith simultaneously conveyed KASW-TV to SagamoreHill of Phoenix, LLC, which, through its affiliates, owns and operates two television stations in two markets. The total sale price of the Phoenix and St. Louis stations was $407.5 million. The majority of this amount is held in escrow at the end of the second quarter. We used a portion of the proceeds in a tax efficient structure to pay for the acquisition of six London Broadcasting Company television stations from SunTX Capital Partners which closed early in our third quarter.
