Chad Boeger’s Pinnacle Media will launch Sports “
ESPN Wichita 92.3 The Fan” KKGQ Newton/Wichita KS on Monday, June 14.
Boeger, who heads Union Broadcasting and its Sports stations in Kansas City and Louisville, acquired KKGQ from Rocking M Media for $623,000
in April. The deal helped settle the legal battle between Rocking M and Envision Broadcast Network dating to the 2017 merger of then-Envision owned KKGQ into Rocking M’s Wichita closer. Rocking M agreed to sell its entire cluster in 2019 to Allied Media Partners, however liens placed on the stations by Envision were unable to be cleared and Envision locked Rocking M Media out of their studios located at Envision’s headquarters
leading to the sale collapsing. The former Red Dirt Country “
Kansas Country 92.3” has been operating as Country “
92.3 The Brand” when on the air since then.
