        They thought they’d be able to get away with merger without divestment because they’re buddies with the President and it backfired. Good!

        This is the BEST news for our country. The Trib beloved local stations should not fall into the hands of dirty operators. The ghastly merger highlights that we need the type of oversight provided by the UK's @Ofcom in the interest of the greater public good.

        Great! Here’s hoping one of these days Nexstar gets broken up. They are the most blatant about using a shell company (Mission) to skirt ownership limits: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nexstar_Media_Group …
