<scratches head> It had been getting difficult to sort out PRI and American Public Media (APM) since Minnesota Public Radio (MPR) had owned a piece of PRI and owned APM outright.

Same-station revenue was also up a strong 5%. Journal says the gains are due to strong increases in automotive and media ad spending. The company also set a new record for political revenue as it booked $5.7 million across all of its divisions during second quarter. Boston’s WGBH buys PRI. <http://www.InsideRadio.com> In a deal that merges two of public radio’s biggest content providers, Boston’s WGBH (89.7) is buying Public Radio International. The Minneapolis-based PRI will continue to operate independently and create and distribute shows such as “The World” – which was already a co-production with WGBH. The pubcasters say the move is in response to “tremendous changes and opportunities occurring in media.” PRI has run a budget deficit the past two years.
