Last Bastion Station Trust




The Last Bastion Station Trust, LLC is a privately owned trust company that temporarily owns 2 radio stations previously owned by Citadel Broadcasting. Citadel absorbed ABC Radio as well as 22 radio stations (not including ESPN Radio and Radio Disney O&O affiliates) on June 12, 2007 from The Walt Disney Company, making Citadel Broadcasting the 3rd largest radio company in the United States. However, in order to comply with the FCC ownership limitations, Citadel transferred 12 of its radio stations.

  • WLUN (formerly WYLZ) Pinconning, MI was sold in March 2008 to the Great Lakes Loons minor league baseball team.[2]
