Deals: 8/23/04-8/26/04
Styles Media's 120M acquisition of the two Spanish Broadcasting System co-channel FMs in Los Angeles propelled this week just about to the head of the class of 2004 - - and the good news is that it would have been a hot week even without the blockbuster. You'd have to go all the way back to the end of May to beat the 90M+ spent on the week's other 19 deals.
