Talks to resolve the Greek financial crisis hit a snag and corporate earnings reports were mixed, so Wall Street traders were wary on Tuesday. The Dow Jones Industrial Average ended the session down 33 points, or 0.3%, at 12,676. The S&P 500 also dropped, but the Nasdaq Composite closed in positive territory. Broadcasting stocks, however, were mostly higher.


The RBR Radio Index was up 17.709, or 4.9%, to 381.210.

The TVBR Television Index was up 4.862, or 1.9%, to 254.908.
