Fact check: What are the biggest investors in Nextstar Media as of 2025?

Checked on September 23, 2025

1. Summary of the results

The analyses provided do not explicitly mention the biggest investors in Nexstar Media as of 2025 [1] [2] [3] [4] [5] [6] [7]. However, it is mentioned that Nexstar's Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, Perry A. Sook, is the company's third largest shareholder as of December 31, 2024 [1]. Additionally, the analyses discuss Nexstar's acquisition of TEGNA for $6.2 billion and the company's financial implications [1]. The sources also mention that Nexstar has committed financing in place from BofA Securities, J.P. Morgan Chase N.A., and Goldman Sachs & Co. LLC to finance the transaction [1].

  • Key points from the analyses include:
  • Nexstar's acquisition of TEGNA for $6.2 billion [1]
  • Perry A. Sook's position as the company's third largest shareholder as of December 31, 2024 [1]
  • Nexstar's committed financing from BofA Securities, J.P. Morgan Chase N.A., and Goldman Sachs & Co. LLC [1]

2. Missing context/alternative viewpoints

The analyses lack specific information about the biggest investors in Nexstar Media as of 2025 [1] [2] [3] [4] [5] [6] [7]. Alternative viewpoints that could provide more insight into the company's investors include:

  • A detailed list of Nexstar's shareholders and their respective stakes in the company (not provided in any of the analyses)
  • Information about the company's ownership structure and how it may change in the future, particularly in light of the proposed merger with TEGNA [5]
  • Analysis of the potential impact of the acquisition on Nexstar's investors and the company's overall financial performance (not provided in any of the analyses)

3. Potential misinformation/bias in the original statement

The original statement asks for the biggest investors in Nexstar Media as of 2025, but the analyses provided do not offer a clear answer to this question [1] [2] [3] [4] [5] [6] [7]. This lack of information could be due to the fact that the sources are focused on other aspects of the company, such as its acquisition of TEGNA and its financial performance [1]. The sources that mention Perry A. Sook's position as the company's third largest shareholder may benefit Nexstar's management and investors who are looking to promote the company's leadership and stability [1]. On the other hand, the sources that discuss the company's acquisition of TEGNA and its financial implications may benefit Nexstar's investors and stakeholders who are interested in the company's growth and expansion plans [1].
