Sources at Nexstar's KRON tell FTVLIve that the company has told most of the freelancers that their services is no longer needed. 

Many California stations rely on freelancers to put on a news product each and every day. Insiders at KRON say that yesterday Nexstar pulled the plug on freelancers. 

And you show you the state of the KRON newsroom. Here is a picture of one of their live trucks parked outside the station. 

Notice that it's missing a back tire and according to station sources, it's been sitting like that for a few days. 

Meanwhile, we're fairly certain that Nexstar CEO Perry Sook has all four tires on his car.
