And Sherri Redstone is laughing all the way to the bank :(

That era in social media was so much fun! No expectations and feature rich. +1 for Tom

The should move the affiliation away from nexstar/sinclair stations and give it to competing stations. This has happened before in broadcast when a licensee acts like this.

Yes you can!

I feel that it’s likely will cease video and sound at some point and the licensees of the spectrum will be use it for data casting. It’s a wildly efficient mechanism for a one to many situation.

Entertainment is not a zero sum game. Broadcast audience measurement. While not the largest portion of viewers, broadcast does serve a large group of Americans every day.

The affiliate system on the other hand is going to die. It is inevitable. Retransmission consent costs and major networks taking the lions share of those revenues from affiliates while putting the best content in their own streaming silos -exclusively- is going to likely be the culprits.

Overall, broadcast is viable even if most of the viewership for its content is via OTT/streaming.

All FCC licensees need to file EEO reports annually. It’s the law. DEI is literally baked into being a licensee. The fact that this is not reported is a mistake when mentioning this, or any license transfer. That is FCC’s domain regarding this deal and why it’s been held up.

The ol’ cure the disease by killing the patient technique. Classic

Celebrity Deathmatch.

Ahhh. That’s a bummer :(

Bernie is in the Senate not the House of Representatives where AOC serves. How did Bernie vote for this?

Sweet baby Jesus. I love all of these. Fantastic sci fi and fantasy

Fringe

The same team did a show called 1899. It was 🔥. Then they cancelled it…

Journalists employers are all friends. This Makes it nearly impossible to for journalists in large orgs to stand up to oligarchs. Although it does make for great pageantry for non-billionaires.

Blam-o!

Not all of us… I, and many others voted and organized against this.

Also , the spineless viewers , musical artists, players, and advertisers that enable the whole event

Zoltan!
