Transactions: 7/31/06-8/4/06
For the third week in a row, station trading as filed at the FCC topped 100M (this time just barely). And for the third time in a row, television was the driving force, this time accounting for almost 90% of the value in a relatively slow week. Besides the big Wichita agreement chronicled below, this was the week Tribune announced its 17M Albany sale.
