Yesterday, Juan Luis Ramos of El Sol de México revealed that Pedro Ferriz de Con is in active negotiations with Eduardo Henkel to buy XHINFO-FM 105.3, Mexico City’s Aire Libre. The station would obviously broadcast the Central FM program, and one wonders if the entire format would change as a result.
Central hasn’t had a broadcast outlet in the all-important Mexico City area since XFM’s bitter — and, according to Ferriz de Con, intentional — collapse, which has since sent Central FM Equilibrio, S.A. de C.V., into a legal battle with Grupo Siete Comunicación.
