FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

COX RADIO ANNOUNCES SHARE REPURCHASE AUTHORIZATION

ATLANTA, August 29, 2005 — Cox Radio, Inc. (NYSE: CXR) today announced that its Board of Directors has authorized a share repurchase program through which Cox Radio, from time to time, may repurchase up to $100 million of its Class A common stock in the open market or through privately negotiated transactions, with the amount and timing of repurchases to be determined by the Company’s management.

Robert F. Neil, President and CEO stated: “Cox Radio’s strong free cash flow generation has allowed us to de-lever and strengthen our balance sheet considerably over the last several years. This share repurchase program provides us with flexibility in the use of our free cash flow and an attractive vehicle for enhancing shareholder value.”

As of June 30, 2005, Cox Radio had 42.1 million shares of Class A common stock outstanding. Cox Radio has no obligation to repurchase shares under the Board’s authorization, and the timing, actual number and price of shares that are purchased will depend on a number of factors, including the market value of Cox Radio’s Class A common stock. Cox Radio may suspend or discontinue this repurchase program at any time.

Cox Radio is one of the largest radio companies in the United States based on revenues. Cox Radio owns, operates or provides sales and marketing services for 79 stations (66 FM and 13 AM) clustered in 18 markets, including major markets such as Atlanta, Houston, Miami, Orlando, San Antonio and Tampa. Cox Radio shares are traded on the New York Stock Exchange under the symbol: CXR.
