Nexstar Broadcasting Group has acquired GoLocal.biz, an Internet technology company that has been providing local business directory, coupon, movie and entertainment listings to all 35 of Nexstar's local portal sites and to other local media.

Based in St. George, Utah, GoLocal.biz was founded by Nick Schulz, Dave May and Brian Green in 2007.
