Good Karma Brands will reportedly end its LMA with Emmis Communications owned WEPN-FM (98.7 ESPN)/New York when its contract comes to an end in August, 2024. The programming on the station will then return to WEPN and its digital platforms. The station currently airs the ESPN Radio's national lineup. The New York Post reports that Emmis is seeking around $50 million for the Sports outlet.
Good Karma owner Craig Karmazin told the Post, "We're committed to serving the New York sports fan and with the combination of our AM signal, the ESPN New York App, podcasts, smart speakers, YES and other additional audio and video distribution, investing in an FM signal was not relevant in the way it was a decade ago."
ESPN began leasing WEPN from Emmis in April, 2012. Good Karma Brands assumed operations of the station when it acquired ESPN's local radio assets in December, 2021.
