Rush Radio rebrands as Boston Talk 1200

[Dan.Strassberg]

OK, that makes sense. But hadn't Gallagher been on Salem-owned WNYM?
Remember, Salem syndicates Gallagher. If so, Gallagher would have
moved from WNYM to WOR and Beck would have moved from WOR to WNYM. If
that's what happened, maybe Salem was willing to pay WOR to take
Gallagher and Premiere was willing to pay Salem to take Beck on WNYM.
If that's what happened, I would need a scorecard to try to figure out
which company came out ahead. My guess would be that Premiere would
have been willing to pay Salem more to take Beck than Salem would have
been willing to pay Buckley to take Gallagher. My head hurts!
