BUSINESS TALKRADIO AND LIFESTYLE TALKRADIO NETWORKS PARENT COMPANY RENAMED
Michael Metter, President and CEO of the Business TalkRadio Network and Lifestyle TalkRadio Network, has announced a rebranding that results in a new name for the parent company. Blue Star Media Group, Inc. isthe new holding company of the two networks as well as its four owned and operated radio stations. The ownership and management remain the same. “The new holding company better represents the direction the company is taking as we prepare to launch a third national network that will complement BTRN and LTRN,” said Metter. “Our growth from one network with 120 affiliates eight years ago to two national radio networks providing programming to more than 1,400 radio stations, along with the four radio stations we own, requires a more distinct characterization of our company,” he added. The company also owns KNUU in Las Vegas, WLFP in Pittsburgh, WXBR in Boston and WGCH in Stamford/Norwalk, CT. Metter stressed that there were no management or personnel changes planned for the Stamford, CT based company. “In fact, we have growth planned in the form of a new national network that we feel will fill a programming void for radio stations across the country,” said Metter. The Business TalkRadio Network provides 24/7 business and financial programming including the Ray Lucia Show while the Lifestyle TalkRadio Network, which also operates 24/7, offers specialized shows from sports and entertainment to home improvement and travel. Doug Stephan’s Good Day anchors mornings on LTRN.
