The licensee of a Milwaukee radio station since 1972 which is poised to become the latest property in the Civic Media stable — along with a 61-year-old newspaper serving the Black community of Milwaukee — has entered into a Consent Decree with the FCC’s Media Bureau to resolve a transfer of control violation in November 2024.
This likely clears the way for Civic Media to close on its acquisition of the AM radio station and its companion FM translator.
