More BS kool-aid from Nexstar.

 

Sure, they can expand newscasts until they're blue in the face.  But when the content pool diminishes from reporter layoffs, cutting news feeds, and reliance on "old" news to fill the time.  I've noticed a marked increase in "regional" news on Nexstar stations (and others like Gray that have taken over large swaths of the country).  Basically, the stations are feeding each other and less and less is devoted to covering the actual news in their area.  The result is a watered-down product that everyone loses from because it's the same thing across a large swath of stations, making the very concept of "local news" a farce.

It's very well possible that a local station could not have a single LOCAL story on a very slow news day.

I found this on WOOD's website today.  It takes you to the website. I also spotted it on KARK.  Not all the Nexstar/Tegna affected stations have it... yet...

The obsession with Big Tech is just insane.

WDAF-TV and KSNW-TV (The Kansas State Network) also has it... 

 

Tegna doesn't even own any stations in Kansas City, or even Kansas.

I spotted it on WAVY's website as well. Man, they are really trying to push this through.

For a company that's so worried about big tech, maybe they shouldn't have hitched their entire future to retransmission consent of pay TV and playing catch up supplying their content to newer platforms.

 

Big tech isn't going to be their demise, they did this to themselves.

Can I just point out the irony that this image of the WPIX studio is at the bottom of the Nexstar-Tegna.com website? It should not be lost on anyone that Mission is still due to sell PIX 11 because Nexstar is running an out-of-state SSA though Mission Broadcasting and they still owe over $1.8 million to the FCC for de facto violation of the 39% ownership cap. However, that action is conveniently delayed under Brenden Carr. Perry is, at this point, flaunting that he's violating the public trust and the law. I'm forwarding this to my AG. Great litigation evidence, really.
