Broadcast television revenue slipped 5.3 percent to $11.7 billion in first quarter, according to a Television Bureau of Advertising analysis of TNS Media Intelligence data. Local broadcast turned in the best performance, down 3 percent to $4.04 billion. Network TV had the toughest quarter, declining 6.5 percent to $6.7 billion. Syndicated TV was down 5.9 percent to $986.7 million.
