Good Radio Networks LLC (more known as GoodRadio.TV) was a West Palm Beach, Florida based radio ownership group headed by former Pax president Dean Goodman.[1] Partners in this venture include former NAB Chairman Eddie Fritz, and former founder of NextMedia, Carl Hirsch.
GoodRadio was established in late 2006 with the purchase of six stations in Iowa. It later acquired The Shepherd Group's 8 FM and 8 AM stations, all in Missouri, in February 2007.
In 2007, Good Radio had plans to acquire 200 smaller-market radio stations from Clear Channel Communications,[2][3] but the deal fell through when its financing group, American Securities Capital Partners, objected to the deal's $452 million cost.
In December 2013, GoodRadio.TV merged into Digity, LLC. Effective February 25, 2016, Digity and its 124 radio stations were acquired by Alpha Media for $264 million.
