Triton Radio Networks
Triton Radio Networks is a subsidiary of Triton Media, based in New York. It purchased the assets of many radio networks, including Dial Global, Waitt Radio Networks and Jones Radio Networks in 2008, and then acquired the majority of Westwood One in 2011 (which itself contained the remnants of past radio networks, as well as the distribution rights to other existing networks). This has raised concerns about the network's concentration of media ownership, to the point where Talk Radio Network, a rival network, filed legal action against the company, citing antitrust violations.

Famous quotes containing the words triton, radio and/or networks:
“I’d rather be
A Pagan suckled in a creed outworn;
So might I, standing on this pleasant lea,
Have glimpses that would make me less forlorn;
Have sight of Proteus rising from the sea;
Or hear old Triton blow his wreathed horn.”
—William Wordsworth (1770–1850)
“... the ... radio station played a Chopin polonaise. On all the following days news bulletins were prefaced by Chopin—preludes, etudes, waltzes, mazurkas. The war became for me a victory, known in advance, Chopin over Hitler.”
—Margaret Anderson (1886–1973)
“To be perfectly, brutally honest, those of us who are still carrying diaper everywhere we go are not at our most scintillating time of life....We need to remember that at one time in our lives, we all had senses of humor and knew things that were going on in the world. And if we just keep our social networks open, there will be people ready to listen when we once again have intelligent things to say.”
—Louise Lague (20th century)
