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 2 APIs on the APIs.io network: Content API (WordPress REST) and PREMION Content API (WordPress REST). 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.
