WBIX sold...

[Hakim Madjid]

According to the business section of today's Boston
Globe, (Wednesday 6/9/04), WBIX 1060 has been sold by
Bleidts. The lucky buyer is one Chris Egan, the
offspring of EMC's co founder Richard Egan.

Globe Reporter Wendy Lee writes:

"Egan, the president and cofounder of Carruth Capital
LLC, a commercial real estate management and
investment company, said he plans to expand the
station's 15 hours of daytime broadcasting to 24 hours
a day by this fall. Egan said he plans to hire more
salespeople and launch a summer and fall marketing
program, which will target the business community
through breakfasts and financial planning seminars."

OKAAAAYYYY...

The one part I remain skeptical about is the 24 hour
operation. Then again given the elder Egan's strong
ties to the Bush administration (Egan Sr. is a big
GOP/Bush backer, and was appointed Ambassador to
Ireland for his efforts. Currently, the elder Egan
currently serves on some sort of Presidential
technology adisory panel) ya never know...doesn't hurt
to have friends in high places...
