ITEM 8.01 OTHER EVENTS.

     On July 29, 2004, Bridge Capital Investors, II (“BCI”) sued Susquehanna Radio Corp., a Susquehanna Media Co. (“Media”) subsidiary, for $10.0 million alleging breach of contract and unjust enrichment in connection with Media’s acquisition of Radio Station WHMA-FM (now WWWQ-FM). The station was originally licensed to Anniston, Alabama then subsequently moved into the Atlanta, Georgia metropolitan area.

     On January 26, 2005, the United States District Court for the Northern District of Georgia granted summary judgment in favor of BCI against Media. The summary judgment grants BCI the sum of $10.0 million with interest at the rate of 9% per annum from January 22, 2001 and allows BCI’s recovery of attorneys’ fees and costs. BCI has ten (10) days to submit a statement of its fees and costs to the court. Media has five (5) days thereafter to file objections to BCI’s request.

     Media intends to appeal the judgment.
