Fox Television Stations CEO cites ownership limits as hurdle for local journalism

“We are meeting customers where they are, be it on linear, social or streaming, and doing it with an obsessive focus on innovation, costs and efficiency,” Abernethy said.
Abernethy said journalists must defend both free speech and the free market.
“Local journalism still matters. It matters more than ever. And sure, journalists are quick to defend free speech. But too many are too slow to defend the free market. They must do both,” he said.
Soon we will have fewer megacorps owning a larger number of stations in each market–or one megacorp owning all of them.
TACOMA, Wash. — An immigration judge ruled Wednesday to push back the hearing for an Iranian green card holder who has been in Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) custody for several months.
The attorneys representing the United States asked for more time to review the evidence submitted by Milad Aspari’s lawyer. It has been over four months since Aspari, an Iranian green card holder, has been in custody at the Northwest ICE Processing Center in Tacoma.
