Rumor has it that a small group owner with 3 stations in the Greenville/New Bern/Moorehead City market, has a total market share of less than 5%, who has sent packing 12+ employees in the last few months, operates one station with on-air talent (the other two are automated 24/7), and the GM needs corporate approval to buy toilet paper.
