Either outcome was going to make me question whether or not to continue subscribing to the LAT. Good work everyone. Yikes.

actually, just fyi, Tribune newspapers are totally separate from Tribune Media

Thank goodness! LA Times is a gem for coverage of California politics especially, it would be a shame if new corporate owners changed that

What does this all mean? Is Sinclair going to have a dedicated news channel ALA CNN or FXN?
-
They WANT to. Carriage is ANOTHER story.
-
They have massive retrans leverage. Carriage isn't an issue.
-
I might argue that but you can believe anything you want.
-
Tribune has stations in NYC, LA, Chicago, Houston. DMAs 1-4. That's plenty of leverage to launch anything.
-
Like I don't know that? Those are broadcast carries. A NETWORK is a COMPLETELY different animal! Told you I'd let it go...
-
I'm not sure you know much about carriage of television.
-
You have that right. I have almost 50 years of expertise.

I just threw up a little. Granted, I also would've done that had 21st Century Fox won.
