    Broadcast station owners want to consolidate. They're struggling to get deals to the finish line

    Broadcast station owners like Nexstar, Tegna, and Sinclair are eager to consolidate to combat shrinking profitability due to declining pay-TV subscribers. Nexstar proposed a $6.2 billion deal to buy Tegna, while Sinclair made a hostile offer to acquire E.W. Scripps. Both deals face regulatory and governance challenges, with Sinclair's family ownership dynamics complicating its efforts.

    CORRECTED-Broadcaster E.W. Scripps adopts poison pill after $622 million Sinclair bid (Nov. 26)

    E.W. Scripps has adopted a poison pill strategy to evaluate a $622 million bid from Sinclair, aiming to protect shareholders from coercive tactics. The plan activates if any investor's stake exceeds 10%, allowing existing shareholders to buy more shares at a discount. Sinclair, holding an 8.2% stake, has been in talks for months. A merger could create a media giant but may conflict with FCC ownership caps. Scripps' shares rose 43% since Sinclair's stake disclosure. The board aims to ensure shareholders receive appropriate value.
