Benzinga’s weekly Stock Wars matches up two leaders in a major industry sector with the goal of determining which company is the better investment. This week, the duel is between two major radio broadcasters: Cumulus Media Inc. (NASDAQ: CMLS ) and Sirius XM Holdings Inc. (NASDAQ: SIRI ). The Case For Cumulus Media: This company came about thanks to the Telecommunications Act of 1996, which changed the law to enable single ownership of multiple radio stations within a specific market and on a nationwide basis. Lewis Dickey Jr. , a consultant to the radio industry, teamed with private equity firm owner Richard Weening on acquiring radio stations in midsized markets. The pair began operations in May 1997 and within a year owned more than 100 stations in 31 markets. The company went public in June 1998. Today, the Atlanta-headquartered Cumulus owns and operates 406 stations in 86 markets, along with approximately 9,500 affiliated stations through Westwood One . Last month, a consortium led by Jeff Warshaw , CEO of Connoisseur Media , offered to acquire the company for approximately $1.2 billion, including debt, with the goal of taking it private at $15 to $17 per share.
