It comes as a big surprise to many. In a single sentence offered by its CEO at the start of its Q2 2025 earnings call, Caroline Beasley revealed that Beasley Media Group is selling its five radio stations in Fort Myers for $18 million. RBR+TVBR knows who the buyers are.

She began her media career in her hometown of Jackson, Miss., and after more than five years as a radio personality, she transitioned to TV news as a producer for WAPT-TV in Jackson, some 17 years ago. Now, she's been appointed Director of News and Multiplatform Content, starting August 25, at WGN-9.

Here's the good news when it comes to Beasley Media Group's Q2 2025 earnings report: the radio station owner's net loss declined. However, it appears that expense controls are to thank, as the net revenue and adjusted EBITDA each fell. A surprise transaction in its home market is also a likely factor.

They are described as "strategic executive promotions in enhanced leadership roles," and they see the VP of Business Development rising to the role of Chief Operating Officer while its seven-year VP of News is being elevated to the role of Chief Innovation Officer. There's also a third promotion at Morgan Murphy Media.

Now, it is mourning the death of its former chief executive, Franklin Dunn Schurz Jr. He passed away in Bozeman, Mont., at the age of 94.

It's a cue taken from internet services providers such as Xfinity and Spectrum, and could bring a whole new dimension to virtual MVPDs, which are now, like traditional cable television service companies, seeing subscriber roll struggles in the streaming age.
