PRX Bids for Chrysler and Dow
Hi friend of PRX,
It's time for the big boys to make room. PRX promises to inject a bit more fun in the Wall Street Journal than Rupert would. And we always wanted a million minivans. You know PRX welcomes you in the driver's seat. Whether you're a listener posting reviews, a network distributing good works, a producer breaking into another market or a station crafting its sound with acquired works, PRX is a valuable tool.
Do you know the dos and don'ts of breaking up? Chill with Lyle Lovett and pals at the Disney Concert Hall from NPR. And capture the passion of New Orleans.
IPO anyone?
--John
