Broadcasting is hard

Post by sinklair » Wed Oct 18, 2023 5:26 am

The world’s worst TV broadcaster —Sinclair — says it’s too hard to run TV stations without running afoul of federal regulations so it’s going to invest its time and money in other areas.

According to CEO Chris the Ripper, Sinclair wants to get more involved in insurance and nursing homes. He must not realize those are also very heavily regulated industries as well.

Two pieces of advice:

If you have a loved one, do not buy Sinclair insurance or put them in a Sinclair nursing home.

Secondly, sell your TV stations to a company that actually wants to do real journalism… and don’t let the door hit you on the way out.

Anyone still working for a Sinclair station should be very concerned about what the near future holds for them. There will be little to zero investment as the company looks to hold the line on costs. GET OUT NOW.

Sinclair will soon be “reorganizing”… AKA look for more company wide station cuts like what we are seeing in Flint.

This is part of Sinclair’s efforts to cut costs as they try to unwind its broadcast stations. Lots of good people will be losing their jobs.
