Mario500 3 Posted July 27, 2007 Share Posted July 27, 2007 As mentioned at the end of their 10:00 PM newscast, WKRG made a new radio deal with four radio stations owned by Clear Channel of Mobile. The announcement came after an employee luncheon at the WKRG building where TV5, WKSJ-FM, WNTM-AM, WRKH-FM, and WMXC-FM operate. Two of the stations (WNTM and WMXC respectively) were formerly known as WKRG-AM and WKRG-FM prior to October 1994, when the family of the original owner of TV5 sold their radio division more than a year after the founder's death. This deal was made possible by the sale of WPMI by Clear Channel Communications. WPMI recently made a radio deal with Cumulus Broadcasting to provide news to stations owned in Mobile. I would not be surprised if WKRG's current owner Media General decides to purchase the former WKRG radio stations from Clear Channel.
