Lee Partners LP and private equity firm Bain Capital Partners LLC, both based in Boston. The merger, which made Clear Channel a private company, was completed June 30. (This is last year.)<br /> <br /> <a href="http://sanantonio.bizjournals.com/sanantonio/stories/2008/12/15/daily6.html" target="_blank"> <!-- m --><a class="postlink" href="http://sanantonio.bizjournals.com/sanantonio/stories/2008/12"><a href="http://sanantonio.bizjournals.com/sanan" rel="nofollow">http://sanantonio.bizjournals.com/sanan</a> ... es/2008/12</a><!-- m --> /15/daily6.html</a><br /> <br /> Only reason I noticed this was because I listened to K-Hits on AOL Radio and saw that it wasn't there anymore. I hope Clear Channel doesn't ruin a decent station, but I won't get my hopes up. http://radioinsight.com/boards/topic/15121#post-65039 Mon, 12 May 2008 22:46:47 +0000 only1moore 65039@http://radioinsight.com/boards/ Well, after listening to the "new" KXJM all day, they sound better than they did at 95.5. PD Lisa Adams is doing a great job with the transition.<br /> <br /> BTW, I like the new logo:<br /> <a href="http://www.jammin1075.com/" target="_blank"><!-- m --><a class="postlink" href="http://www.jammin1075.com/">http://www.jammin1075.com/</a><!-- m --></a> http://radioinsight.com/boards/topic/15121#post-65002 Sat, 10 May 2008 11:27:18 +0000 TPM 65002@http://radioinsight.com/boards/ Surprise! Surprise!<br /> <br /> Here's the way I reported this story (source: <a href="http://totalpopularmusic.com/Behind-the-Microphone.html" target="_blank"><!-- m --><a class="postlink" href="http://totalpopularmusic.com/Behind-the-Microphone.html">http://totalpopularmusic.com/Behind-the-Microphone.html</a><!-- m --></a>):<br /> <br /> <b>* <i>Jammin'</i> will continue jammin', <i>MOViN</i> moves out, but <i>Jammin'</i> is <i>MOViN</i> ... uh, moving in Portland, OR -- even though the station which has been <i>Jammin'</i> is changin' ... uh, changing ... to Sports. KVMX flipped from Rhythmic AC <i>MOViN 107.5</i> to <i>Jammin' 107.5, Hits and Hip-Hop</i>, Friday night (May 9), and began simulcasting <i>Jammin'</i> KXJM until Monday morning (May 12) when <i>Jammin'</i> will belong to the former <i>MOViN'</i> and the new Sports format will be aired on the former <i>Jammin'</i>. KVMX has obtained the format, the intellectual property, the website, and some of the key people from KXJM. <i>MOViN</i> ... uh, moving ... to the new home of <i>Jammin'</i> is the morning show <i>PK's Playhouse</i> (with its full crew) and Program Director <i>Lisa Adams</i>. If all of this is not unique enough, the two stations are owned by different companies.<br /> </b> http://radioinsight.com/boards/topic/15121#post-64997 Sat, 10 May 2008 05:37:26 +0000 only1moore 64997@http://radioinsight.com/boards/ ....Yes folks, KVMX has evolved from Rhythmic AC to Rhythmic Top 40 and has picked up "The Playhouse" from KXJM, along with the "JAMMIN'" moniker Friday (May 9th, 2008). http://radioinsight.com/boards/topic/15062#post-64841 Thu, 01 May 2008 13:18:22 +0000 only1moore 64841@http://radioinsight.com/boards/ It looks like "Jammin' 95.5" will be playing sports instead of music: They're flipping to Sports on May 12th.
