And in a shocking move, Clear Channel makes a deal with...

FoxNews!
:eyes:
Fox News has reached an agreement to become the primary news provider to radio giant Clear Channel Communications Inc.

http://www.centredaily.com/mld/centredaily/business/10351836.htm
Fox News, Clear Channel Team Up

"Fox will provide a five-minute top-of-the-hour newscast, a nightly news broadcast, and around-the-clock dedicated national news coverage. In return, Fox News Radio will have access to news produced by San Antonio-based Clear Channel's news network."

WSJ adds...
The deal "creates direct competitor to ABC Radio and CBS Radio," the press release says. "ABC Radio will absorb the biggest blow from the Clear Channel-Fox News deal."
