Two more CC Radio markets sold
The first Clear Channel Radio stations to be sold since the bidding deadline last Friday are two clusters in Mississippi. Kevin Wagner's Urban Communications is acquiring the six-station cluster in Tupelo and the five-station cluster in Meridian. Terms were not immediately disclosed. In an email note to bidders in its auction, CC Radio noted that the buyer is "a minority controlled and operated company." The company held a special seminar in Washington, DC before the auction with the Minority Media and Telecommunications Council to encourage minority and female entrepreneurs to bid for the stations being divested. Because of the large number of bidders, CC Radio said in its email that it will not be able to communicate "as we might otherwise like" with all of the interested parties involved in the auction. "If you have additional information relevant to your proposal that you would like us to consider, please provide it to Kalil & Co. as soon as possible," the email stated. RBR has been keeping track of the 448-station sell-off for you. Here is the latest update to our market-by-market chart.
