GoodRadio.TV

American radio broadcasting company

Good Radio Networks LLC, doing business as GoodRadio.TV, was a West Palm Beach, Florida based radio ownership group headed by former Pax president Dean Goodman. 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, but the deal fell through when its financing group, American Securities Capital Partners, objected to the deal's $452 million cost.

In 2013, GoodRadio was folded into a larger holding company known as Digity, LLC, also owned by Goodman, joining a sister group of stations in West Palm under the banner West Palm Broadcasting. The reorganization came alongside Digity's purchase of NextMedia. Digity was in turn acquired by Larry Wilson's Alpha Media in February 2016.
