A Manhattan judge dismissed DirecTV's lawsuit against Nexstar Media and two other television station owners, deeming it 'speculative' and stating DirecTV 'could not tie any losses' to the alleged antitrust conspiracy. Concurrently, the FCC fined Nexstar $1.2 million for violating rules concerning the control of WPIX-TV in New York, with Comcast weighing in on the decision. Nexstar has vowed to 'vigorously' dispute the FCC's ruling, which mandates the sale of WPIX-TV or other stations due to the breach of a pact with Mission Broadcasting.
