TEGNA

TEGNA Inc. is an American broadcast, digital media, and marketing services company headquartered in Tysons, Virginia, operating as a subsidiary of Nexstar Media Group following FCC approval of the $6.2 billion acquisition in March 2026. TEGNA operates 64 full-power broadcast television stations across 51 U.S. markets, reaching approximately 39 percent of all television households. Its digital marketing portfolio includes AudienceOne first-party data targeting, OTT/CTV advertising through the Premion platform, and the TEGNA Marketing Solutions full-service agency. TEGNA runs no public developer program and publishes no developer portal: those advertising products are transacted through insertion orders, programmatic deal IDs and agency contracts. The only publicly callable, machine-readable API surfaces TEGNA serves are the WordPress REST content APIs behind its corporate site and premion.com; the Premion advertising platform API at api.premion.com is live but token-gated and undocumented.

TEGNA publishes 6 APIs on the APIs.io network, including Aioseo/v1 API, Contact Form 7/v1 API, Oembed/1.0 API, and 3 more. Tagged areas include Broadcasting, Media, Television, Digital Advertising, and OTT.

The TEGNA catalog on APIs.io includes 2 Spectral governance rulesets.

TEGNA’s developer surface includes authentication, documentation, support, engineering blog, and 30 more developer resources.

Create-or-Update Ergonomics applies to this provider. This API accepts writes, so it carries 10 points of the composite. It is scored from the published contracts themselves: whether a caller can create-or-update in one call, whether the write accepts a key the caller already holds, and whether the response says which branch ran. Without that, every write needs a search-and-branch in front of it, and the first time that check is skipped a duplicate record is created. Scored against the observed mean rather than raw — a provider at the catalog average is unchanged by this facet, not penalised by it.

Improve this rating by publishing the missing artifacts — every area above can be raised, and the full rubric is at apis.io/rating/. Every facet and dimension name above is a link: it opens that measurement's own page — what it means, the exact checks that feed it, how the whole catalog distributes on it, and the providers at the top of it. This rating is computed from github.com/api-evangelist/tegna: open an issue to ask a question, or submit a pull request to add artifacts.
