In February, we reported that Soros was about to take over the third-largest broadcaster in the country, Audacy, along with its stations.
Audacy claims to be able to reach 200 million people across the range of its properties which include sports, music and talk radio stations, as well as a large digital platform, and while Audacy is not an inherently conservative company, it owns a number of talk radio stations and the talk radio format caters to commuters, early risers and working people which is to say conservatives.
The Soros takeover will give one of the biggest funders of leftist extremism control over not only conservative talk radio stations but those that are, like WILK, in swing states.
Founded by billionaire investor George Soros, is tightening its grip over the US radio industry after scooping up a majority stake in bankrupt radio company Audacy.
Cumulus Media has been described as the second largest radio network in the country, but either way, we are talking about a massive empire.
Audacy claimed over 200 million listeners while Cumulus claims over 250 million.
A Soros-backed firm played a key role in Univision's $60 million sale of 17 Hispanic radio stations to a company run by veterans of Democratic politics, per Semafor.
