Top 30 Station Groups: Nexstar Still No. 1; Gray, Scripps, Allen Busy Buyers

Nexstar tops the TVNewsCheck-BIA Advisory Services’ annual list of the Top 30 groups ranked by total revenue for the third year in a row. But with the sale of Meredith’s and Quincy’s stations to an acquisitive Gray, the top 10 slots are rearranged following an active 12 months of M&A.

According to this release for 2020 Nexstar ranked 1st for total revenue. Interestingly the Network O&O's are ranked 5-8 on this list this may be due to the O&O's being confined to larger DMA's on average. Since the data is from 2020 some of this could also be attributed to advertising especially whenever battleground states are discussed.
