It is reportedly also taking a look at Gray-owned Peachtree TV (WPCH), but that could cause a massive number of simsub blackouts in Canada, as WPCH is widely distributed in that country, and many of The CW's new imports are CTV/Crave, CBC and Global original series. Even many of WPCH's local programming however is blacked out in that country, with paid programming and off-network repeats filling these slots.Surprised that they didn't consider KVOS-TV for Seattle, but probably Nexstar figured it out that Tegna could make a better deal out of it!
