Goodwill and Intangible Assets Disclosure [Abstract] |
Goodwill and Intangible Assets Disclosure [Text Block] | 3. GOODWILL AND RADIO BROADCASTING LICENSES: Impairment Testing In accordance with ASC 350, “Intangibles - Goodwill and Other,” we do not amortize our indefinite-lived radio broadcasting licenses and goodwill. Instead, we perform a test for impairment annually or on an interim basis when events or changes in circumstances or other conditions suggest impairment may have occurred. Other intangible assets continue to be amortized on a straight-line basis over their useful lives. We perform our annual impairment test as of October 1 of each year. Valuation of Broadcasting Licenses During the first quarter of 2014, the total market revenue growth for one of the markets in which we operate was below that used in our 2013 annual impairment testing. We deemed that to be an impairment indicator that warranted interim impairment testing of that market’s radio broadcasting licenses, which we performed as of March 31, 2014. There was no impairment identified as part of this testing. In addition, during the first quarter of 2013, the total market revenue growth for one of the markets in which we operate was below that used in our 2012 annual impairment testing. We deemed that to be an impairment indicator that warranted interim impairment testing of that market’s radio broadcasting licenses, which we performed as of March 31, 2013. The Company recorded an impairment charge of approximately $1.4 million during the three months ended March 31, 2013, related to our Cincinnati FCC radio broadcasting licenses. There were no impairment indicators present for any of our other radio broadcasting licenses. Below are some of the key assumptions used in the income approach model for estimating broadcasting licenses fair values for the annual impairment assessment as of October 1, 2013, and interim impairment assessments for the quarters ended March 31, 2014 and 2013.

Valuation of Goodwill During the first quarter of 2014, we identified an impairment indicator at one of our radio markets, and as such, we performed an interim analysis for certain radio market goodwill as of March 31, 2014. No goodwill impairment was noted during the three months ended March 31, 2014. We did not identify any impairment indicators for the three months ended March 31, 2013. Below are some of the key assumptions used in the income approach model for estimating reporting unit fair values for the annual impairment assessment as of October 1, 2013, and interim impairment assessment for the quarter ended March 31, 2014.
