On Saturday, the Davis Fire erupted to the south of Reno, Nevada. As of Wednesday, it remained an extreme threat. Democratic Vice Presidential candidate Tim Walz cancelled a rally due to smoke and health concerns. Evacuation warnings were expanded this morning.
Now, the fire has squelched over-the-air broadcasts for the CBS affiliate owned by Sarkes Tarzian and the NBC affiliate operated by Sinclair Inc. through a shared services agreement with a close partner. At least one local radio operation is also impacted.
