Judge halts local TV giant Nexstar's takeover of rival Tegna until trial.

Federal judge blocked TV giant Nexstar's takeover of rival Tegna Media until the upcoming antitrust trial occurs. A loss for Nexstar could result in the $6B deal could be undone. Until the trial ends, Nexstar must separately operate the Tegna stations it just acquired. https://www.npr.org/2026/04/17/nx-s1-5789059/judge-halts-nexstar-tegna-merger-lawsuits #Lawsuit #Nexstar #Tegna #Merger #DirecTV #FCC #TV #LocalTV #ABC #CBS #Fox #NBC #Trial
