Weigel Broadcasting has gained national recognition for its ownership of the MeTV-branded digital multicast network and related Classic Hits radio programming, and for snagging The CW Network affiliation from WGN-9 for its over-the-air TV station in Chicago.
Now, Weigel, headed by Norman Shapiro, is expanding with a pair of unbuilt LPTV stations located in two key DMAs. It’s a steal of a deal.
Guess who’s the seller?
