For third quarter core, the good quarter is up about a tenth, driven by September with some category improvements, though ABC and independent stations declined and South-Central dipped. In fourth quarter, pacing fell four-tenths week over week due to Labor Day being on September 7 instead of the first, and forecasts now reflect a September estimate of minus 13.4 and a third quarter estimate of minus 9.1 while fourth quarter remains at minus 13. The main long-term driver is anticipated political crowd-out after the Supreme Court stay, changing expectations for LUC versus higher rate card spend through Election Day, with guidance to forecast core first and manage political inventory closely.
