Nexstar Media Group, Inc. (NASDAQ:NXST), today announced that in connection with its pending acquisition of TEGNA Inc. (NYSE:TGNA), the companies have filed applications with the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) seeking consent to the transfer of the broadcast licenses currently controlled by TEGNA to Nexstar. The applications address why, if certain of the FCC's rules governing television ownership remain in effect, waiver of the rules would serve the public interest, especially in the local communities Nexstar's stations will serve.
