Add Saga Communications to the growing group of radio broadcasting companies that, in contrast to their television industry brethren, saw their revenue decline during the third quarter of 2026. For publicly traded Saga, a net loss was seen again, but was largely impacted by a non-cash impairment charge.

He's been a News/Talk icon in the Alamo City for many years and has gained a national audience thanks to the syndication of his weekday radio program. Distribution of that show will continue for Joe Pagliarulo, as he's agreed to a multi-year extension of his current deal.

Stingray isn't the purely Canadian FM-focused company it once was, thanks to its acquisition of TuneIn, and a build-out of free ad-supported streaming television offerings. Those "plus" offerings helped Stingray in a big way during its fiscal second quarter of 2027.

A company led by CEO Steve Newberry that's emerged as a leader in "visual radio" is taking one of the nation's storied media technology operations to court over claims its products infringe a patent tied to synchronized text, logos and images radio stations display on in-car screens — something championed by QUU.

In this document, the Federal Communications Commission (Commission) repeals the national television multiple ownership rule (national cap), which prohibits a commercial television licensee from having a cognizable interest in television stations that have an aggregate national audience reach above 39%. The Commission finds, given seismic changes in the modern media marketplace, that the rule's repeal will help empower local broadcast television stations to operate in the public interest and to better serve the needs and interests of their local communities. The Commission will review on a case-by-case basis proposed transactions that would have been prohibited under the national cap to determine whether a proposed transaction would serve the Commission's media ownership goals of localism, competition, and viewpoint diversity.

This document amends the Table of TV Allotments (Table) of the Federal Communications Commission's (Commission) rules by substituting VHF channel 9 for UHF channel 21 at St. George, Utah in response to a petition for rulemaking filed by KUTV Licensee, LLC (Licensee), licensee of full power television station KMYU(TV) (KMYU or Station), St. George, Utah. The Media Bureau (Bureau) previously granted a petition for rulemaking submitted by the Licensee to substitute UHF channel 21 for VHF channel 9 at St. George, Utah in the Table. The Licensee subsequently filed an application for a construction permit for its new channel, which remains pending due to certain unresolved engineering matters. The Licensee now states that upon further consideration and restraints, it wishes to abandon its plans to modify its license for KMYU to operate on channel 21. The Licensee filed the instant petition to amend the Table to substitute VHF channel 9 for UHF channel 21 and allow KMYU to continue to operate on channel 9 at its licensed parameters. The staff engineering analysis finds that the proposal is in compliance with the Commission's principal community coverage and technical requirements, including the interference protection requirements. In support of its channel substitution request, the Licensee filed comments reaffirming its interest and stating that it commits to promptly take any and all steps that may be necessary to effectuate the channel substitution proposed in the petition. An individual commenter, Steven Quinn Singleton (Singleton), also filed comments, but did not explicitly object to the proposed channel change. For the reasons discussed in the Report and Order referenced below, the Bureau denied Singleton's comments.
