Back to Wicks Television Group

The strategy of Wicks Broadcast Group was to build and operate a diverse group of middle market television and radio properties. Wicks searched for situations where it was able to buy at reasonable prices, effect operational changes when appropriate, and create significantly increased values. Both Peter D'Acosta, former President of Wicks Television Group, and D. Rex Tackett, former President of Wicks Radio Group, are highly regarded and experienced professional managers with strong track records of success.
