Bundesrichter verlängert einstweilige Verfügung gegen Fusion der lokalen TV-Giganten Nexstar und Tegna im Wert von 6,2 Milliarden US-Dollar

>Eight state attorneys general and DirecTV sued to block the merger between the local television giants, arguing that it would raise consumer prices and harm local journalism. They asked U.S. District Court Chief Judge Troy L. Nunley in Sacramento, California, to halt the merger until their antitrust lawsuit is resolved.

>Nexstar’s attorneys say the deal will lead to expanded local journalism and programming, not a reduction.

Yeah, I don’t think the corporation buying have everyone else’s best interest at heart.

They didn’t pay for the privilege
