It is a move that comes after a voluntary Chapter 11 bankruptcy filing made by its sibling, Dish DBS: EchoStar's satellite-based consumer market-focused Hughes Network Systems, has moved forward with its own bankruptcy filing. Why? The decision is primarily due to its inability to repay some $1.5 billion owed to debtholders.

Nexstar Media Group returned $56 million to shareholders in dividends during the first quarter of 2026, maintaining its regular quarterly cash dividend payout of $1.86 per share. The company founded 30 years ago by its leader, Perry Sook, has voted to do it again in Q2.

"These individuals have received induction by the determination of the Radio Hall of Fame 2026 Nominating Committee, who annually meet to determine inductees who contributed with greatness to the radio industry and have since passed away," the Chicago-based Radio Hall of Fame announced on Monday.

Now, Circle City Broadcasting — owned by DuJuan McCoy — has unveiled a fresh station theme and brand slogan.

In mid-July, the FCC’s Media Bureau signed off on the transaction. As the month came to its conclusion, the deal officially closed —making "ABC 36" a sibling to the NBC affiliate serving Lexington, Ky.

TEGNA's NBC affiliate in St. Louis, which must remain in a "hold separate" state despite its ultimate ownership by Nexstar Media Group, has chosen a lead anchor for its local evening newscasts — another sign that becoming a full sibling of KTVI "FOX 2" and KPLR-11 is potentially years away.
