More WAXY-790-The-Ticket News

From Mr. B.J. again...

'Joel Feinberg, who is leasing 790 The Ticket's signal, has discussed two scenarios: leaving the station altogether (he won't comment on that) or buying it from Lincoln Financial (which he confirmed he's trying to do). Either appears a better alternative than continuing his money-losing lease agreement.

'Either way, there's optimism that The Ticket -- which has a marketing partnership with The Miami Herald -- will remain a sports station for the foreseeable future.'

Comments: So it's the lease agreement that Feinberg says is the problem - eerily similar to the Marlins' deal with Dolphin Stadium, I suppose. He won't comment on leaving the station, but somebody must have 'discussed' it. Meanwhile their competition seemed to have gained significantly on the Ticket in the latest ratings book.
