Deportes Media has lost its LMAs of three of the four stations it operates
with ESPN Deportes Radio programming.

The company lost its LMA of Liberman Broadcastings 1540 KZMP University
Park/Dallas in September and that station flipped to a simulcast of La
Ranchera 106.7 KZZA. Deportes Media had moved its San Francisco LMA from
860 KTRB to iHeartMedias 910 KKSF in July, but the format there is now
being operated by iHeart directly. In Miami, Actualidad Radios 990 WMYM
Miami has replaced Deportes Medias LMA of Multicultural Broadcastings 1210
WNMA Miami Springs FL as the local affiliate.

Deportes Media continues to operate Entravisions 1180 KGOL Humble/Houston
TX. The websites for the other three stations simply state the stations are
off the air and a Dallas phone number for their accounting department.
Deportes Media filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy in December 2015 and agreed
to merge with CornerWorld Corporation in March. The merger had to close by
September 30, 2016 or would automatically terminate. No filing or proof of
closing can be found.
