MediaStar Corporation

MediaStar is a broadcasting company based in Denton, Texas founded in 1990 with the first station owned and operated by MediaStar being KSRG the Star Affiliate in Brownsville/McAllen/South Padre, Texas.
MediaStar began as a spinoff from Baldwin Media the original launch of the Star Network and owner of the Star Owned and operated stations (Now Star News and Stations). This was due to the FCC rules where you couldn't own too many O&O stations, Lisa Baldwin chose to create a 
whole new LLC, MEDIASTAR instead of selling to other broadcasting companies. The current apparent company of Star News and Stations is Wesley and does not have any ownership in MediaStar as it is now owned by investment firm Monarch and Planet Communications. Lisa Baldwin helped establish Planet Communications in 1996 and has since continued to be involved in the venture. 
MediaStar is the currently the most single-handed owner of non-O&O Star and KWB affiliates (with Wesley/Star News and Stations owning the O&Os). MediaStar owns OX affiliates also in markets across the United States. Major plans for MediaStar are coming soon with a new CEO being announced in 2022 and more ambitious plans to replace the many graphics packages produced by the graphics hub in Nashville, TN and will eliminate them by the end of 2024, a new unified graphics package known as "MediaStar One" will soon be available beginning in the fall of 2023.
