https://www.facebook.com/share/18abJZc5bd/ Not WDKY declining to renew Marvin Bartlett's contract. This is just sad.

Give them time. Im surprised Nexstar didn't say anything about that.

Hold on? Sinclair actually did that?

Wouldn't that be WZPX?

If they had just done the divestitures in the first place, we wouldn't be talking about this. In any case, I agree with you.

"Nexstar must permit Tegna to continue operating as a separate and distinct, independently managed business unit from Nexstar, and Nexstar must put measures in place to maintain Tegna as an ongoing, economically viable, and active competitor. Tegna shall have separate management that operates Tegna in the ordinary course consistent with pre-closing practices." It better NOT be anyone from Mission!!!

I'm waiting on the day Kim acquires Sinclair and announces Deb McDermott is gonna lead the company. You just know its gonna happen.

But...but....but....they said they wouldn't do this. They said they wanted to preserve voices.

I hope the state of Illinois is taking serious notes right now since this involves WSIL.

Along these lines, could divestitures be ordered in all states where there are conflicts or just the ones who joined together for the suit? In other words, does this mean that they can keep WBNS and KVUE (for example) but have to sell KENS, WXIA, WJXX, etc? Also, is there any possibility that Nexstar would have to transfer any stations it had before Tegna to a trust as well?

Wouldn't this mean that they would have to transfer the Tegna stations to a trust?

Given that KLEW is now being operated by Rincon, who's to say they wont start simulcasting some news from KXLY (or even add a simulcast of both KXLY and KAYU on the subchannels)

While Rincon turns over the keys to Sinclair in Tulsa, it is planning to take the lead role in operating KIMA and KEPR. https://www.tri-cityherald.com/news/business/article314592261.html

What is it with the right leaning companies refusing to take no for an answer? First Paramount, now them.

I find it hard to believe WINK's owners are liberal leaning because of a radio station called Trump Country, which by the way, I find absolutely ridiculous. And I'd say the same thing about any radio station named after any politician.

Idk why I feel like WTVC and WCYB are better fits for Gray.

I'll bet 75% of my sneaker collection (which I bet is just as nice as Perry Sook Jrs) that this ends up going to an ALJ.

Someone needs to do an independent investigation to find out where everyone ranks at. Like, there needs to be a third party who does this.

At minimum, they could have at least volunteered to sell one of the larger stations in the conflicts like example WGNO, WTIC, KTHV etc. I'm just saying that just to put out there what some people may be thinking.

Never forget also when Nexstar bullied Marshall Broadcasting out of the business and deceived them.

And I need an explanation on Scranton as well.

I don't think there's much more they can get after this. They really wanna be a monopoly.

It's Nexstar's own fault that Big Tech is a threat to them in the first place. You still can't stream KTAL or KTVE.

KFXK is a threat to KETK the same way I would be a threat to Mac Mcclung in the Slam Dunk contest.

The loudest part of the deception is what they're not saying. They're not mentioning the SSAs, they don't have spinoff plan for certain stations like KVUE and WBNS, and they didn't mention Waco at all, which, although, I personally wouldn't have an issue with it, is loud in itself. They could have at least name checked Waco. Obviously, they're treating KWKT and KYLE as one and saying it's justifiable to merge with KCEN. At least PRETEND like you intend to follow the rules.
