BLC is apparently the one that retained their corporate history. I looked over filings yesterday, and kind of lost interest. They probably have cross-ownership via insiders.

Thanks.

History

The company traces its roots back to 1842 with the introduction of The Daily News in Galveston, Texas. Its flagship, The Dallas Morning News, has been publishing since 1885. The name A.H. Belo Corporation was applied to the company in 1926. The name was shortened to Belo Corp. in 2002.

On October 1, 2007, Belo announced the separation of its newspaper and television businesses by spinning off its newspaper business to shareholders as the A. H. Belo Corporation, officially completed in February 2008. The television business retains the Belo Corp. name (without the "A. H." initials),[1] with the television business being the legal successor to the prior company.[2]
