Local Media of America appoints Norman McKee as CFO overseeing the financial affairs of its 6-station radio group in San Diego, reporting directly to media industry vet and LMA CEO John Lynch. McKee served for more than ten years as the CFO of Saga Communications. Most recently, he was CFO of Live Sports Radio, an in-stadium broadcasting business.

"LMA possesses strong media assets and the addition of Norm's extensive financial expertise to the leadership team even further positions the company for future acquisitions on both a local and national scale. I am very pleased to have Norm McKee join LMA as CFO," said Lynch.

"This is an exciting time in the radio broadcasting industry and I look forward to being a part of Local Media of America," added McKee. "The combination of John Lynch and his LMA team, along with the resources provided by Thoma Bravo, provides an exceptional foundation on which to build a leading media company."

In January, 2010, LMA acquired San Diego-based Finest City Broadcasting and its three stations in San Diego market: XHRM-FM, XHTZ-FM (Z-90) and XETRA-FM (91X). The company also holds a joint operating agreement with Broadcast Company of America, led by CEO John Lynch, operating XEPRS-AM, XHPRS-FM and XEPE-AM.
