FCC chairman calls for Nexstar-Tribune deal approval

The U.S. Federal Communications Commission Chairman Ajit Pai has sought support from fellow officials for the approval of Nexstar Media Group Inc.'s proposed acquisition of Tribune Media Co., Reuters reported, citing a spokeswoman for the U.S. agency.

A majority of the five-member FCC will have to grant a go-ahead for the deal to push through.

The proposed $6.4 billion transaction was approved by the U.S. Department of Justice in July, on condition that the broadcasters will divest TV stations in 13 markets.
