## Resource

David Hoffmann’s media empire just got a major boost—Hoffmann Media Group has snapped up six St. Louis radio stations, including iconic KMOX, for $20 million. The deal, finalized with Audacy, brings in Y98, 102.5 The River, 96.3 The Lion, All-Classical 90.7, and WXOS (104.5 The Edge), all while keeping current formats intact. Hoffmann, also majority owner of Lee Enterprises’ Post-Dispatch, plans to expand further, with his son running daily ops and beloved “Total Information AM” host Megan Lynch returning to the airwaves. This move signals a bold new chapter for St. Louis media under the Hoffmann family’s leadership. Listen in comfort: Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
