30. I sort-of personally can.

Outdoor antenna. I'm in NE Greensboro, can get all the Greensboro specific stations, and a good number of Raleigh and Roanoke stations. Our ABC is a Sinclair, Roanoke's a Sinclair. Raleigh is a Disney. So goodbye WXLV, hello WTVD.

Even with Nexstar buying Tegna we will have a choice of CBS, ABC, NBC, Fox, CW and My broadcast network owners. Though Gray and Hearst are also big media conglomerates, Capitol Broadcasting are one of the few family station owners; owning two full power network stations and two small low power independent stations. Though Capitol is right wing, it was the home of Jesse Helms after all.
