EMMIS dumping Wall street?

[bigtime]

A story on the R & R web site today says Emmis might go private after selling their tv stations for over $1billion. With no Wall Street analysts to worry about what will they do? Will they buy 95.5 and 104.5?

Nah, Jeff was actually dodging the question about a ABC Radio Acquisition. But Emmis might make a run at it. Entercom and Cox will make a run for those too, but Jeff wants bigger fish then Indy.


You know, BIG stations like

WPLJ/WABC
WZZN/WLS
KLOS/KABC
KGO/KSFO

And so on and so on.

So, does the ABC radio sale include Satellite Music Network and Radio Disney? Or, is it just for their O&O stations?<P ID="edit"><FONT class="small">Edited by pprd on 06/30/05 05:49 PM.</FONT></P>

I think it's everything... News Network, Disney, O&O's, etc. I think they're looking to get out of the radio business altogether.

If Emmis got a hold of KGO, well I'd just have to cry.
