Sinclair, a major local broadcast group, is launching a national news brand called The National Press on Substack. The venture will feature free and paid tiers, with content from Sinclair's 1,200 journalists. Sinclair aims for revenue and subscriber growth, partnering with New Media for this initiative. The company previously failed with a similar venture, Circa, but hopes to mitigate risk this time.
Sinclair, Inc. CEO Chris Ripley estimates the company's spectrum could be worth $4 billion if the industry transitions to NextGen TV (ATSC 3.0). This depends on FCC approval, potentially by February 2028. Sinclair has repaid $345 million in debt this year and raised its 2026 political advertising guidance to over $375 million. Core advertising revenue was $308 million in Q2, with a full-year forecast of $1.22-1.28 billion.
Sinclair Inc. will take full ownership of a TV station in Reno, Nevada, currently operated under a joint sales agreement with Cunningham Broadcasting, creating a 'triopoly' in the market. Additionally, Sinclair is acquiring another station in Elko, Nevada, from Cunningham.
