In the meantime, there may be a court challenge to the sale of WBRU. Attorney Don Wineberg of Chace, Ruttenberg & Freedman LLC said he has been hired by a group “close to the station” to block the sale. Wineberg said he is considering legal action based on the idea that donations given to WBRU over the years are not being used for their intended purpose.
It ended, for now at least, with these three songs: “This Must Be the Place” by the Talking Heads, then “1979″ by the Smashing Pumpkins, and finally “I Fell in Love with a Girl,” White Stripes.
At least one F-bomb dropped.
Then three or four minutes of static, then K-LOVE arrives with “What a Beautiful Name” from Hilltop Worship.
