I would like to take this opportunity to commend our maintenence man Dominique Norris for his bravery, he single handedly chased two vagrants that were shaked up in our high rise luxury apartments at 450 N. Arlington Ave, The Belvedere. One of these gentlemen pulled a knife on Dominique and having no other option he picked up a pool stick, well then the chase ensued, Dominique chased this one guy through the Silver Legacy while calling 911 for assistance and tackled him right in front of the McDonalds on Virginia Street, The police were right there at the time and arrested this guy and charged him with tresspassing, damaging property (Burn marks in the seats in our community room), and I believe the knife also cost this gentleman a charge. Then as he returned to the building the second of 4 total vagrants was down stairs, Dominique immediately started chasing this guy too, and ran through the Legacy (Casino) and chased this gentleman all the way to Lake Steet which is a long 3-4 city blocks and tackled this guy too. The police promptly arrested this guy as well. Anyway I feel a lot safer having Dominique here as do other residents and I guarantee that the word on the streets is do not sneak into the Belvedere Complex or you will be dealt with. Is there any kind of award I can recommend him for? This truly goes above and beyond the call of duty!!!!. Thanks very much. My cell number is 775-247-6085 and we are located at 450 N. Arlington Ave. Reno, Nevada, 89503......Thanks again

On August 7, 2009, Gray Television, Inc. announced results from operations for the first half of 2009.

Highlights of the six-month period ended June 30, 2009:

Total net revenue decreased $23.3 million, or 16%, to $126.4 million due primarily to decreased local, national, political and internet advertising revenue and decreased production and other revenue. These decreases were partially offset by increased retransmission consent revenue in the current period. Retransmission consent revenue reflects the more profitable terms of our recently renewed contracts. Local and national advertising revenue decreased due to reduced spending by advertisers in the current economic recession. Historically, our industry's largest advertiser category has been the automotive industry. The current recession has significantly reduced the automotive industry's advertising expenditures. Our automotive advertising revenue decreased approximately 45% compared to the prior year. The negative effects of the recession were partially offset by increased advertising during the 2009 Super Bowl. Net advertising revenue associated with the broadcast of the 2009 Super Bowl on our ten NBC affiliated stations approximated $750,000 which is an increase from the approximate $130,000 of Super Bowl revenue earned in 2008 on our then six Fox affiliated channels. Internet advertising revenue decreased due to the same factors that affected our local and national advertising revenue but to a lesser extent. Political advertising revenue decreased due to reduced advertising from political candidates during the "off year" of the two-year political advertising cycle.

Local advertising revenue decreased $12.7 million, or 13%, to $82.6 million.

National advertising revenue decreased $9.6 million, or 27%, to $25.2 million.

Internet advertising revenue decreased $0.4 million, or 7%, to $5.3 million.

Political advertising revenue decreased $6.1 million, or 76%, to $2.0 million.

Retransmission consent revenue increased $6.2 million, or 425%, to $7.6 million.

Production and other revenue decreased $0.7 million, or 17%, to $3.5 million.

I warn against working for this company. They have very few ethics and treat their employees like crud.
