Financials continue to come out as publicly held broadcasters report how they did in 2003.
Regent Communications Inc. said its net broadcast revenues increased 14.5% to $80.6 million last year.
For the fourth quarter, net broadcast revenues fell 1.8% to $21 million, and were off 0.7% on a same-station basis.
