Red Zebra selling WXTR 730 AM
(October 18, 2010) DCRTV gets confirmation that Redskins owner Dan Snyder's Red Zebra broadcasting arm is selling WXTR, 730 AM, to Vienna-based Metro Radio.
No price announced yet. With the WTNT calls moving from Snyder sports talker on 570 to 730. Under a lease agreement that takes effect today, the new "The Truth" on 730 will pick up the largely Talk Radio Network righty talk programming that 570 dumped in September, including the old Washington Times "America's Morning News," plus Laura Ingraham, Michael Savage, and Jerry Doyle. Snyder's sports talk WTNT will take on the WSPZ calls. Metro also owns Spanish language outlets in Manassas, 1460 AM, and Warrenton, 1250 AM, plus a classic country station on 1420 AM, also Warrenton. The deal leaves Snyder's Red Zebra with two sports talkers - ESPN 980, WTEM, on three signals, including 980 AM plus 92.7 FM and 94.3 FM, as well as WSPZ on 570 AM. Read more at
