Local TV-Station Owner Sinclair Seeks Merger With Rival Tegna  One week after Sinclair, one of the largest U.S. broadcast station owners, announced a "strategic review" of its business, the Wall Street Journal reports the broadcaster has offered to merge with rival Tegna, according to people familiar with the matter.

Ministers must give local authorities and people greater power to tackle this issue and reclaim our high streets. Currently, billionaire-owned overseas corporations have too much power, and local people have none. That needs to change. And it's tim...

Trump Says He Will Push For Release Of Pro-Democracy Hong Kong Media Tycoon Jimmy Lai Authored by Bill Pan via The Epoch Times (emphasis ours), President Donald Trump has said he would do what he can to help secure the release of Hong Kong media tycoon Jimmy Lai, who has been imprisoned since late 2020 for his role in the city's pro-democracy protests.
