Culture
Nexstar's stated values center on respect for its audience, customers, employees, and owners. The company says it encourages every individual's contributions and personal growth, fosters work environments that provide personal pride through job satisfaction and a balanced life, promotes open communications, innovation, and creativity, and strives for excellence in all its endeavors. As a local content business, Nexstar emphasizes that each of its television stations — including KNWA in Fayetteville — is a local service business that enriches the community it serves.
Community service is a point of pride: on its 20th anniversary in 2016, Nexstar launched the employee-driven "Founder's Day of Caring," sending employees across the country to contribute thousands of hours of service to local non-profits and charities, a tradition that continues among what the company calls "Nexstar Nation."
