73. there's no reason for ABC to give a damn about Nexstar's merger

And they don't. ABC DID NOT make this decision so Nexstar's mwmerger gets approved I'm sure they couldn't care less about that . ABC made this decision solely because someone in power there it decided it was easier than trying to fight Trump when he tries to pull the licenses of all ABC affiliates even though there is no chance of Trump ever succeeding at that.
