Nexstar Already Making Plans for Consolidation of News Rooms?

Are Nexstar and Mission Broadcasting already making plans of consolidating the newsrooms of KARK and KLRT following channel 16's sale to Mission Broadcasting?....This was in the tip box:

I don't think this is out yet, but this is crazy. KARK and FOX16 will share news studios in the future. KARK's studio will be used for newscasts, while FOX16's will be modified to produce special features / report videos. No idea what this means for staff of both channels, I don't understand why they're doing it.
