WLBG-FM, a radio station based in Laurens, will stop broadcasting March 31.
“This is a painful decision we came to after years of searching for possible future ownership for WLBG. For the past eight years, our goal was to find new ownership to take over WLBG and take it to the next level, ensuring WLBG’s service to the community into the future. Over these years of searching, it has become obvious that social media is the focus for younger generations, to the detriment of more traditional media,” said a statement on the radio station’s website.
WLBG-FM was purchased by Southeastern Broadcast Associates Inc. in 1983.
