Rincon Broadcasting Group
Rincon Broadcasting Group LLC is an American broadcasting company based in Atlanta, Georgia. Rincon Broadcasting was founded in late 2024 by Todd Parkin, who serves as the company's president. Previously, Parkin was a sales executive for FanDuel Sports Network and the former CEO of PBC Broadcasting from 2009 to 2013.[1] HistoryIn March 2025, Sinclair Broadcast Group announced it would sell five of its stations across the Midwest to Rincon for $29.4 million.[2] However, on April 14, a petition to deny was filed to the FCC by Frequency Forward, a public-interest organization arguing that the sale perpetuated Sinclair’s use of side‑car ownership structures; this petition did not challenge Rincon’s qualifications.[3] This petition was dismissed by the FCC on July 1, approving of the sale.[1] The purchase was consummated by Rincon on July 9, with Rincon stating it would invest in ATSC 3.0 upgrades and an expansion in local news.[4] On April 3, 2025, Imagicomm Communications, a shell company affiliated with INSP, announced it would sell seven of its stations across the Western and Southern U.S. to Rincon for an undisclosed amount.[5] The purchase was completed and consummated by Rincon on July 18.[6] Stations
