That's a near certainty. The synergy with Channel 4, which remains 
with CBS, is gone, for one thing. Will Eyeheart even keep a newsroom open 
at WBZ?

Eyeheart currently owns WXKS and WKOX; they are adding WRKO and WBZ, 
giving them four Boston AM's.

They also own WXKS-FM, WJMN, and WBWL, to which they are adding WZLX and 
WKAF, for a total of five FM's.

That puts them one station over the limit. Will they sell WKOX? Turn in 
the license?

What on earth are they going to do with all those AM's? There's not enough 
conservative talk in all of Premiere to fill all that time, nor enouh 
angry old white guys to support that many stations.
