Emmis Sues SBS Over Latino 96.3 Launch In LA.
May 6, 2005
According to Radio &Rrecords magazine, Emmis wants $25 million from Spanish Broadcasting System in L.A. – and a format change. The May 31 lawsuit shows that Emmis claims it was blindsided when SBS “suddenly and unceremoniously changed its format” from Spanish to bilingual urban hip-hop and reggaeton – a threat to Emmis’ Power 106. Emmis objects because SBS-owned KXOL-FM is leasing tower space from it.
