Nationwide Reporting Initiative to Celebrate Investment in American Enterprise in Advance of Nation’s 250th Anniversary
Multi-platform Series Will Deliver More Than 100 Local News Stories Each Month and Quarterly Streaming Specials
IRVING, TX (Mar. 9, 2026) — As the United States approaches the 250th anniversary of the signing of the Declaration of Independence, Nexstar Media Group, Inc. (Nasdaq: NXST), is launching “Investing in America,” a national news initiative examining the major investments shaping the country’s future.
The series will highlight communities across the nation that are driving growth through infrastructure modernization, workforce development, housing, education, small business expansion, and emerging technologies. The series is another element of Nexstar’s companywide, cross-platform, year-long celebration of America at 250 years old, announced in December 2025.
“As the nation’s largest local television station group, Nexstar has the unique ability to spotlight the stories of investing, innovation, and economic growth happening in communities across the country,” said Andrew Alford, President of Nexstar’s broadcast division. “‘Investing in America’ will bring viewers an in-depth look at the projects and leaders helping to shape a brighter future as the nation approaches its 250th birthday.”
The initiative launched on Nexstar television stations March 2 with a five-part weekday series and continues with weekly stories beginning today across Nexstar’s local broadcast, digital, and social media platforms. Nexstar will also produce quarterly one-hour specials designed for digital and streaming platforms featuring development projects and interviews with leaders advancing economic reinvestment nationwide.
Additionally, Nexstar’s local TV stations will contribute more than 100 stories each month, with select reporting shared across its broadcast group and featured in a monthly CTV program titled “Building for the Next 250.”
