Disney has been quietly getting out of everything but the niche end of the radio business for the last year or so. They sold KABC (strongly affiliated with KABC-TV) and KLOS in Los Angeles. They're keeping Radio Disney and ESPN Radio, but dropping the rest of their radio properties like hot potatoes. Meanwhile, in Southern California, CBS seems to be flipping their stations to Top 40 formats as a last-ditch effort to turn a profit before selling them off. -- Kevin M.
