Radio Bismarck Mandan to Purchase BOB-FM

| 7/17/2012

A Bismarck radio station will soon be under new ownership. Connoisseur Media announced today that it will sell KKBO-FM (BOB-FM) to Radio Bismarck Mandan.

"This is an exciting move for us. Together with our sister station Mojo 107.5 (KXRV-FM), Radio Bismarck expands its ability to continue serving the community with exemplary programming and local focus," said Radio Bismarck President and CEO Bob Denver. "With this move we are filling another of the three studios we built in downtown Bismarck last summer. Our team of veteran broadcasters is looking forward to the challenge of continuing to change the landscape of broadcasting in the area."

"Bismarck is a wonderful market," said Connoisseur CEO Jeffrey D. Warshaw, "but owning only one station no longer made the best business sense for us. We wish Bob and his staff great success."

The sale, pending approval from the FCC, is expected to happen in the next few months.
