I don’t know if it is brokered or not.

What is your name in reference to? I think it’s pretty antisemitic.
I'm nipping this in the bud real quick. There is nothing antisemitic about the username, which has multiple meanings including nicknames for multiple sports venues including Aqueduct Racetrack in New York and Anaheim Stadium.

Now let's keep this thread on topic...

hmph. ok then.
So have the new owners implemented any changes? Are there any expected or rumored changes?
Don't know, but I doubt it. No point fixing what's not broke. KOIT and KMVQ aren't broke, they're #3 and #5 in the March ratings. The other two are #14 and #17, but they have special situations: KBLX superserves the Black demo, and KKFX is a South Bay station, where it's in the top 5 or 6 in the San Jose sub-market book. (Though KQED doesn't pay to appear in that, and it's a good assumption that if they did, they'd be at or near the top, like they are in the full-market book, and push everyone below them down a notch.) So basically, what needs fixing in that cluster?
I don't see anything about it on fccdata or Wikipedia, the websites of the stations are also still unchanged. What's up with that?
FCCData has consummation notices turned off by default.
Wikipedia is NOT a news source.
And station websites do not usually change upon closing.
The deal closed Friday morning. That's a fact.
They have removed San Francisco from the Bonneville website Markets - Bonneville International and added the market to the connoisseur website Brands - connoisseurmedia.com
LOL - Far East Bay market.
Shouldn't 98.5 be listed in San Jose? Maybe I am being picky.
But San Jose is embedded in the San Francisco market.
Most groups list stations based on where the studios are located. Since KUFX is operated with the other Bonneville stations they're considered a San Francisco station.
One of my gripes similarly is on the Audacy app where their Kansas City, MO stations are listed as such but Cumulus' cluster is listed as a separately named market of "Kansas City, KS"
