DOJ, FTC OK With Sinclair Purchase of WTSG

The Department of Justice and the Federal Trade Commission don't have any issues with Sinclair's purchase of Media General's WTSG Savannah (GA). That came in an early termination listing released by the FTC, which signals that there are no antitrust issues with the station sale that would require conditioning the deal or suing to block it (what the FTC and DOJ are terminating early is the Hart Scott Rodino antitrust review triggered by any deals valued at more than $75 million).
