Variety | Tegna Names Fox TV Stations Ad Sales Boss Patrick Paolini CEO With Nexstar Merger Stuck in Legal Limbo by Todd Spangler AI generated summary, Read the full article for complete information. Tegna has appointed former Fox TV stations ad‑sales chief Patrick Paolini as its chief executive officer, effective June 1, while the company remains in a legal limbo caused by an antitrust challenge to Nexstar’s $6.2 billion takeover of Tegna. The merger, approved by the FCC and the Justice Department, is being contested by state attorneys general and DirecTV, prompting a “hold‑separate” order that keeps Tegna operating independently. Paolini, who previously served as EVP of advertising sales at Fox Television Stations and held senior management roles at several Fox O&O stations, will oversee Tegna’s daily operations, revenue strategies, local journalism, production, and growth initiatives across its 64 local television stations in 51 U.S. markets. The board praised his deep broadcast expertise and track record of driving revenue growth, while Paolini expressed enthusiasm for continuing Tegna’s commitment to local news and innovation amid the ongoing merger uncertainty.

@wendythedruid@thistlenfern.org Seriously, WTF? So much for #1A and “#FreeSpeech”, I guess…

Seriously, this reminds me of the darkest chapters of history…

The government wants to label trans kids on cartoons like they're violent. Six-year-olds seeing themselves onscreen are harder to convince they don't exist. That's the whole fight. https://twp.ai/9OVXql #TransRights #FCC #DefendTrans #LGBTQIA #ActNow #trans #queer

The FCC moved to ban foreign-made routers in the U.S. last month, and this week Netgear became the first company to secure an exemption, even though its devices are manufactured in Vietnam, Thailand, Indonesia, and Taiwan. CNET has the details on what the ban means for your home network. https://flip.it/NWHZU1 For more on cybersecurity and data hacks please follow our Magazine: https://flipboard.com/@tech/cybersecurity-and-data-hacks-5n8kruo2y #Cybersecurity #NationalSecurity #FCC #TechNews

Stupid Fashs Being Tech Unsavvy Hover or focus to reveal Sensitive
Okie, so President Pee on Me has decreed that all new "foreign made routers" are banned from import or sale in the USA, showing exactly how utterly fking clueless they are. Like dumb fks, fr? I'm not techie and even I know that u just banned all new routers bc Americans stopped producing anything but fascism and bad govt. It's cool tho. I'll just ignore ur bs and do what I want whether u like it or not. #Trump #FCC #Ignoramus #Republican #USPol #Politics

Gift link: This guy is back to threatening to yank broadcast licenses if he or the president doesn’t like the war coverage. This is totalitarian shit. https://www.nytimes.com/2026/03/14/world/middleeast/fcc-broadcasters-iran-war.html?unlocked_article_code=1.TVA.GiL5.qc_bhYZJHXrp&smid=url-share #censorship #censorednews #fcc #brendancarr

Just now getting caught up on the FCC/CBS banning Stephen Colbert from having a prospective Texas senator on his show. AS WELL AS barring him from talking about it. Wow, guess we should all go see what the FCC and Agent Orange don't want us to see... An intelligent, religious Texas Dem. *gasp* https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oiTJ7Pz_59A #JamesTalarico #CancelCulture #FCC #StephenColbert
