And, just like that, 53 years of history crafted largely by Joseph Field disappeared with the push of a button as the New York Stock Exchange commenced its April 9, 2021 trading session.
Entercom Communications, which last week changed its corporate identity to Audacy and is in the process of transitioning its Radio.com brand to Audacy, officially said goodbye to its “ETM” ticker symbol. With that symbolic Opening Bell opportunity, a new era officially begins for Field’s son, President/CEO David Field.
The virtual appearance by Field’s C-Suite members as trading began followed a 30-minute interview on Clubhouse with Entercom CMO Paul Suchman, conducted by Radio Ink Editor Ed Ryan, that saw Suchman share details about how the name change to Audacy came to be.
