18:44Now PlayingEight Democratic attorneys general filed a federal lawsuit to block Nexstar from executing a $6.2 billion merger with Tegna, Inc., creating a "broadcast behemoth" that would degrade local news and democracy. Donald Trump supports the mega-deal, and so does his FCC attack dog Brendan Carr. No GOP AG has signed on to date, even though the merger threatens local TV diversity in red and blue states.
