The News: APM buys Miami Station; Hockenberry Joins PRI Morning Show
Updates:
American Public Media has announced the purchase of WMCU, a 100,000 watt FM station in Miami. At present, the Christian station is owned by Trinity International University. APM paid $20 million for the station, which it says will broadcast classical music.
PRI has named John Hockenberry to host the new morning program it’s creating, in association with WNYC and the BBC. There will be a second host, to be announced. The show is expected to launch daily in early 2008, but the launch will be preceded by a series of election specials. The very capable Graham Griffith is the Executive Producer of this show, which is another reason why we should be paying close attention to it.
