The statements from Chris Ruddy and Curtis LeGeyt come on the heels of President Donald Trump reversing his stance on the topic.

In a post on X, Schmitt called the interview opportunity "a huge get for Newsmax."

Daytime cable news has become a graveyard of modest expectations. That imbalance feels increasingly absurd.

I don't know about you, but I don't want to look around the news/talk radio landscape and keep thinking "It's clear that person would rather be on TV."

“They lecture the Commission about competition and the importance of local journalism despite their complete lack of involvement in promoting, preserving, or expanding local news."

“It's at a bare minimum of a 14-hour workday, five days a week, and I'm asking myself, 'Why radio and television?'”

"Such consolidation risks undermining localism, diminishing viewpoint diversity, and weakening the ability of independently owned and mission-driven stations to serve their communities with responsive, community-focused programming."

"It would be one thing if they were citing these studies to diligently identify how local TV station combinations can diminish the provision of news. But unfortunately, there is something more perilous in their position."

"Keeping the cap in place, and Nexstar and TEGNA separate, will protect local and conservative voices and keep costs from rising rapidly due to decreased competition."

That rush to judgment -- seen wall-to-wall on TV -- didn’t calm tensions. It utterly inflamed them.
