Three months after cutting a deal to buy Liberty Corp.’s 15 TV stations, Raycom Media now plans to sell off 12 of its own network affiliates. The privately-held company says it is parsing off select outlets to focus on its holdings in the Midwest and Southeast. Raycom projects the sales could fetch up to $600 million. The stations to be sold, Raycom says, are: WFXL, Albany, Ga.; KASA, Albuquerque/Santa Fe, N.M.; KXRM/KXTU  Colorado Springs, Colo.; WACH  Columbia, S.C.; KTVO  Ottumwa, Iowa/Kirksville, Mo.; WLUC  Marquette, Mich.; WSTM/WSTQ  Syracuse, N.Y.; WNWO  Toledo, Ohio; WPBN/WTOM  Traverse City/Cadillac, Mich.; KWWL  Waterloo/Cedar Rapids/Iowa City/Dubuque, Iowa.
