Since the release of a viral clip showing broadcasters reading a required segment on journalistic integrity, the local-TV giant Sinclair Broadcast Group has been under the microscope.
The company, which owns 193 local stations across the US, drew criticism for what some saw as a forced message that undermined the independence of the news organizations. Others, including President Donald Trump, have defended Sinclair and the monologue.
One of the biggest reasons for the intensity of the scrutiny is just how wide Sinclair's reach has become. Based on Sinclair's website, the company maintains stations in 34 states and Washington, DC.
