According to a story in the New York Post, the George Soros controlled Soros Fund Management has bought $400 million worth of Audacy’s debt, estimated to be about 40% of the company’s total senior debt. The
Post says it confirmed the report with Audacy and the company added, “The decision by our existing and new debtholders to become equity holders in Audacy represents a significant vote of confidence in our company and the future of the radio and audio business.” The story cites an insider close to the situation who is a Republican saying he believes its “possible Soros was buying the stake to exert influence on public opinion in the months leading up to the 2024 presidential election.” Read the Post story here.
