NRG Media Is Now 7th Largest Station Holder

NRG Media has closed the merger of NewRadio Group and the radio assets of Waitt Media, following FCC approval. The deal had been announced about a year ago.
The companies merged to form NRG Media, an 88-station group operating in seven Midwestern states that also includes the Waitt Farm Network and Waitt Radio Network. Based on number of stations, NRG Media is the seventh largest radio network in the country.
The company is headquartered in Cedar Rapids, Iowa, and led by Mary Quass, the CEO. Waitt Chairman Norm Waitt will serve as chairman of the board.
