Looks like the company is on its death bed. They started to go downhill when the family that started the business sold out to a holding company in 2005.
The company was so big that in the 1980's they bought then powerhouse radio station from CBS. A few years later they sold the station to the Celtics who then made it an all-sports station in 1991.
WEEI was put up for sale in April 1983, after CBS reached a deal to acquire KRLD in Dallas–Fort Worth from Metromedia that September, a deal was reached to sell the station to Helen Broadcasting; the company was owned by the Valerio family, who also owned Papa Gino's. Although Metromedia canceled the sale of KRLD after it was granted permission to own both the radio station and KNBN-TV in Dallas–Fort Worth, the sale of WEEI still went forward. Helen Broadcasting continued the all-news format. CBS retained WEEI's FM sister station until the 2017 sale of its radio division to Entercom.
