Gray Television, Inc. (“Gray”) (NYSE: GTN) is excited to announce the official launch of the daily news magazine program InvestigateTV+ on September 11, 2023. The program will leverage one of the largest collections of investigative journalists in the nation to provide even more investigations that not only uncover problems but reveal and often lead to solutions.

InvestigateTV+ will draw from the strength and experience of all of Gray’s 113 newsrooms with a dedicated team of investigators and producers to provide a daily resource of information that empowers viewers.

Building upon the overwhelming positive response garnered by Gray’s InvestigateTV weekend show, Gray made the strategic decision to extend the reach of impactful journalism through the launch of InvestigateTV+ on weekdays. On average, 1.3 million households currently watch InvestigateTV weekend programming. Gray’s local stations across all of its markets are set to broadcast both the weekday program ( InvestigateTV+ ) and the weekend program ( InvestigateTV ). Moreover, Gray is extending the availability of these programs to non-owned local television stations operating beyond its station footprint.

InvestigateTV+ is hosted by Lee Zurik and Tisha Powell. Lee Zurik is Gray’s Vice President of Investigations and a respected anchor and Chief Investigative Reporter at WVUE in New Orleans. He brings a distinguished portfolio including two George Foster Peabody Awards and twelve National Edward R. Murrow Awards.
