Transactions: 8/6/07-8/10/07
New Vision's 330 million bucks agreement to acquire nine television stations in four markets from Montecito, which itself had acquired them from Emmis not that long ago, headed up trading in a week with three other television transactions and almost no action on the radio side. Television trading shows more signs of coming out of its post-6/2/03 stall.
