Not only was FCC Chairwoman Jessica Rosenworcel in attendance at the NAB Show, delivering remarks at a Monday welcome session, but Republican Nate Simington was also at the Las Vegas affair one day earlier.
Simington was at the conference on Sunday, April 16, and he was there to talk about the future of ATSC 3.0. His remarks were part tongue-in-cheek and part missive, using sarcasm to scorch the Democratic leadership of the Commission on matters including Standard General’s potentially fatal acquisition of TEGNA and acts that led Sinclair Broadcast Group to abandon a planned merger with Tribune Co.
