I think Disney wants to get out of the network business. Networks are a headache. Programming KDIS alone will be far easier and much less expensive than a network.
It paid way too much for some of the stations. A lot of money was spent on broadbanding to make HD easier to configure and maintain. The high power facilities are expensive to maintain. Not having to pay for HD licenses each year will save a lot of money.
I think Spanish, religious (especially Catholic) and other ethnic group owners will be interested in the stations. They have money to spend. Cumulus and iHeart Media are both heavily leveraged and losing a lot of money. Several Catholic groups are aggressively buying stations. Disney would probably accept reasonable offers.
