The @EU_Commission can best support the audiovisual ecosystem by simplifying rules for #broadcasters instead of adding new obligations for #digital players.

His agency said the #Nexstar-#Tegna merger would "empower these #broadcasters to better serve their communities & counter the growing power that national programmers have amassed in recent years." 👀
