As we reported last week, Journal announced it had purchased WNOX in Knoxville, giving it a 4th FM in that market. As soon as the deal was announced, the owner of M&M Broadcasting filed a lawsuit against Johnny Pirkle, the owner of WNOX. M&M claims that it had a deal to buy the station but says "in the final days Journal intervened and got the deal." The sale still must be approved bf the FCC.
