Description:
JUSTIFICATION

THIS SILENT REQUEST CORRECTS A TYPOGRAPHICAL ERROR RECENTLY FOUND IN 20110811ABF, THE PREVIOUS REQUEST TO BE SILENT. THE CORRECT DATE IS JULY 31, 2011.

THE LICENSEE HAS OPERATED WNGM EVERY DAY FOR 24 HOURS A DAY FOR FIVE YEARS. NEW STAFF MEMBERS, STAFF ADJUSTMENTS, PROMOTIONS, COMMUNITY PROMOTIONAL ACTIVITIES AND VARIOUS ACTIVITIES HAVE BEEN ATTEMPTED TO MAKE THE STATION FINANCIALLY VIABLE. NONE HAVE WORKED.

THEREFORE WITH A WORSENING ECONOMY AND EVEN MORE DISMAL FINANCIAL OUTLOOK, IT IS WITH GREAT REGRET THAT BROADCASTING ACTIVITIES WERE CEASED.

THE LICENSEE WITH TAKE THIS HIATUS TO EITHER FINANCIALLY REGROUP OR POSSIBLY, WITH COMMISSION APPROVAL, FIND A NEW OWNER.
