Citadel Hits a PENNY

It's over. Stop the charade, stop paying Farid millions, and declare Chapter 11 already. Reorganize or liquidate, but stop doing more damage to the product by cutting more talented people.

The stockholders are already screwed. It's time to revalue the stations, shed the overwhelming debt, and get back to business.
 
Forstmann Little & Company owns 27% of Citadel and I would guess that they will do what they can to stop the company from filing bankruptcy.

I'm no bussinessman or stock broker but I figure that if they can finance the short term loans and get a new managment in place it could work out. The revenue for 2008 wasn't bad.
 
Wouldn't surprise me if Forstmann increased its percentage in the next few months. Assets are assets, and they'd get a lot for their money.
 
It's my understanding that the Disney deal isn't complete until June. Former Disney shareholders own 51% of the company. I believe that they'll ultimately determine the fate of the company.
 
I've done a search of all the documents related to the sale. Disney shareholders have between 52 and 57% of the company. There is no reference to any date in June 2009. That would mark two years from the closing date in June 2007. I didn't see any targets or deadline that would be triggered two years from closing.

Radio has one asset. Cash flow! Has their debt eaten away at that too?

I don't know :) Please tell me.
