DUQ holds first fundraiser since sale announcement

WDUQ-FM’s (90.5) took in an amazing $208,000 during a shortened winter pledge drive. It was also the first drive since the announcement that the station was being sold to Essential Public Media. According to the Post-Gazette, it may be the last drive that the station holds under Duquesne University ownership depending on the speed of the sale. The station would normally hold a drive in late May and still might if the sale hasn’t gone through by that time.
