Nexstar Media Group's rule-smashing, industry-reshaping merger plan with TEGNA appears to be on track for a closing date in July. Yet, the specter of legal action designed to throw a speedbump — or a banana in the tailpipe — of the transaction wagon had arisen as a likely possibility. Thank the Attorneys General of eight states for bringing a potential block of the deal to life.

It played an integral role in getting the word out that eight Attorneys General have sued to try to stop Nexstar from completing its merger with TEGNA. Now, DirecTV has confirmed that it has filed its own federal antitrust lawsuit with the aim of doing what Washington lobbyists couldn't — killing the transaction.
