FLORA: WNOI off air for antenna replacement

Image
If you're up in the Flora, Ill. area and wondering why you can't hear WNOI (103.9 FM) today, there's a reason:  The station is getting a new transmitting antenna.  Here's more info from the WNOI Facebook page : WNOI Radio will be off-the-air for a considerable amount of time today. We will be going off at around 9:00am this morning, and will remain off for most of the day. The outage is so that we can replace our 41-year-old antenna, which is located at the top of our tower. It’s just the latest effort to get all of our transmission equipment replaced and up to date. If things go smoothly we will be back on the air this evening. We ask for your patience, and hope that you miss us while we are gone. The station has posted some pictures of the process which you can check out on Facebook as well.

Time Warner Cable 1Q profit up 5% over last year

Image
Revenue rises 6.6% to $5.48 billion despite continued loss of video subscribers Time Warner Cable reported its first quarter earnings on Thursday morning. The country's second-largest cable provider brought in higher revenue compared to the same period in 2012. For the quarter, the company reported a profit of $401 million, or $1.34 a share, up 5% from $382 million, or $1.20 a share, a year earlier. Adjusted earnings rose to $1.41 a share from $1.30. Revenue jumped 6.6% to $5.48 billion. Programming costs continued to climb, as they do throughout the industry; for TWC, the hike was 6.8%. Time Warner Cable's residential-services business shed 119,000 video subscribers in the quarter along with 35,000 voice subscribers.  An increase of 131,000 broadband subscribers partially offset those losses. Despite the loss in subscribers, those who remain are generating more income for TWC.  Residential revenue rose 4% to $4.61 billion, but as was suggested earlier

UPDATE, 8:15 p.m.: Folks, there has already been quite a bit of speculation as to what might happen now that this deal has been announced. At this point, that's understandable. But it's really too early to guess what will happen. At this point, it would be irresponsible for me to even attempt to tell you what I think might happen, and that's because I don't have all the answers. When I know those answers, I'll of course share them as soon as I can. Let's not forget that the most important detail of what's to come, whatever its end result, is that it's quite possible that a number of our friends and neighbors will be affected by the changes ahead, so out of respect for them, I prefer not to engage in discussions of "what might be" or "what could happen" until we get some more details.

Get ready: Moody's Investors Service sees Big Cable getting bigger

In effort to lure commercial customers away from phone companies, new report predicts cable's biggest companies will snap up smaller providers Moody's Investors Service is out with a new report today, reports Deadline , that indicates cable's biggest companies —— like Time Warner Cable and others —— will get even bigger over the next five years. But it's not residential growth they're after - it's the lucrative commercial market. “Business services, primarily including voice and data, will be the largest single growth driver for cable over the next decade as residential services growth stagnates,” says Moody's senior VP Neil Begley. Moody's expects that commercial growth to lead to more takeovers by companies like Time Warner Cable of smaller firms like Charter and Cox, which don't have the economies of scale needed to build their business against telecom firms. Here in the Tri-State, this report's predictions are no great surpr

Investor sues to stop Sinclair takeover of Fisher Communications

Image
Claims $41/share isn't enough An investor who holds shares of Fisher Communications has filed a lawsuit against the company in effort to halt its recently-announced takeover by Sinclair Broadcast Group . The suit was announced Tuesday morning by Shareholders Foundation and the plaintiff was not named. The plaintiff alleges that the defendants breached their fiduciary duties by agreeing to sell the company too cheaply via an unfair process to Sinclair. Earlier this month, Sinclair Broadcast Group, Inc. and Fisher Communications announced that they had entered into a merger agreement whereby Sinclair will acquire Fisher in a merger transaction valued at approximately $373.3 million. Under the terms of the agreement, Fisher Communications shareholders will receive $41.00 in cash for each share of Fisher Communications common stock they own. However, the plaintiff claims that the $41/share offer is too low and undervalues the company. Indeed, after the takeove

Publishing segment revenues in the quarter totaled $871.2 million compared to $874.1 million in the first quarter last year, a decline of just 0.3% as the all access content subscription model has seen circulation increase. Domestic publishing revenues were up slightly in the first quarter, the first increase since mid-2006.  An increase of 58.7% in retransmission revenue and a 2.3% increase in core advertising revenues more than offset lower advertising associated with the move of the Super Bowl broadcast to the company's six CBS stations from its 12 NBC stations and a decrease in political spending of $3.4 million.
