The deal comes just as Tribune’s agreement to be acquired by Sinclair is apparently unraveling. The parties proposed a fifth revision to their deal in May, around the one-year anniversary of the announcement of the $3.9 billion transaction. Last month, the Federal Communications Commission said the deal did not appear to be in the public interest, and would schedule hearings to look into proposed divestitures that it characterized as potential sham transactions.
