I can't comment on whether he is buying the station but a LMA was in talks a couple years back.
They even got permission from Clear Channel to use the "Kiss-FM" branding.
Brothers Broadcasting was originally going to take WKUZ classic hits upon acquisition but Double X-C trumped those plans. They decided on AC instead.
Given that WKUZ is calling themselves 95.9 Kiss-FM, is AC and John is looking for sales people, I'd say the LMA is in place and a sale may be in the works.
