Good Thing Arte Closed The Fox Deal, Then

OC Blog has news that KDOC has sold for $150M, to Atlanta-based Ellis Communications. Founder Bert Ellis is an Internet entrepreneur, and formerly built another Ellis Communications and sold it in 1996. The channel was most famous for its broadcasts of Rev. Gene Scott and Wally George (both of whom are now dead), and its occaisional (and really surprisingly low-quality) broadcasts of itinerant Angels games. Who knows what Ellis has in mind for the station, but at this point I doubt the Angels figure into it.

Comments:
I'm assuming you're playing that comment straight?

KDOC would have been a temptation, and I could think of fewer things worse than relying on that dim legacy station to anchor the Halosphere.
 
Well, I was thinking more that the Angels wouldn't have been in a good position when dealing with KDOC, given that the new owner will probably have his own programming ideas.
