Item 4.01 Change in Registrant's Certifying Accountant.

Ernst & Young LLP (E&Y) was previously the independent registered public accounting firm for Sinclair Broadcast Group, Inc. (the Company). The Audit Committee of the Board of Directors of the Company approved the dismissal of E&Y as the Company's principal accountants, which dismissal took effect on March 5, 2009. In addition, effective March 5, 2009, the Audit Committee appointed PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP (PWC) as the Company's independent registered public accounting firm (auditors) for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2009.

The reports of E&Y on the Company's consolidated financial statements for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2008 and 2007 did not contain an adverse opinion or a disclaimer of opinion and were not qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope, or accounting principles.

During the years ended December 31, 2008 and 2007, and through March 5, 2009, there were no (a) disagreements with E&Y on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure, or auditing scope or procedure, which disagreements, if not resolved to E&Y's satisfaction, would have caused E&Y to make reference to the subject matter thereof in connection with its reports for such years, (b) reportable events, as described under Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K, or (c) consultations with PWC regarding any of the matters or events set forth in Item 304(a)(2)(i) and (ii) of Regulation S-K.

The Company provided E&Y with a copy of this disclosure and requested that E&Y furnish the Company with a letter addressed to the Securities and Exchange Commission stating whether it agrees with the above statements and, if not, stating the respects in which it does not agree. A copy of E&Y's letter to the Commission will be filed as an exhibit in an amendment to this Current Report on Form 8-K within two business days upon receipt.
