Eric Kallgren Boulder, Colorado USA | Posted at 10:46pm on Wednesday, April 29th, 2009 | WQXR FM may be be for sale, the New York Post reported on April 28, 2009:
"BEETHOVEN and Bach could become the latest victims of the New York Times Co.'s financial crisis.
Rumors are raging that top suits have discussed putting classical radio station WQXR (96.3 FM) on the block to shore up the company's dwindling cash stash, which, The Post reported last week, is down to $34 million after debts are weighed in. The Times itself is dropping sections and demanding huge cutbacks at The Boston Globe.
Allan Sniffen, who runs the influential New York Radio Message Board, told Page Six: "It would make sense for the New York Times, and the rumors that make the most sense usually have legs." As to how much the station is worth, Sniffen said, "In this market and with the state of radio? Anyone's best guess. Maybe $50 million?""
