This Amendment No.1 amends and supplements the current Report on Form 8-K which
was filed on December 4, 2000 by Brill Media Company, LLC.

On November 17, 2000, certain wholly-owned subsidiaries of Brill Media Company,
LLC (together with its wholly-owned subsidiaries, the "Company") paid $1,099 in
cash to acquire 100% of the membership interests of TSB IV, LLC (T4L), a
Virginia limited liability company, pursuant to an Agreement for Transfer of
Membership Interest (the "Acquisition").

Simultaneously, Mr. Alan Brill made a capital contribution of $1,099 in cash to
the Company.

Prior to the transaction, T4L had been a "managed affiliate" of the Company as
described in note 9 to the consolidated financial statements included in the
Annual Report on Form 10-K of the Company for the fiscal year ended February 29,
2000, and was indirectly owned by Mr. Alan Brill. Accordingly, the transaction
will be accounted for similar to a pooling-of-interests.

                         Report of Independent Auditors

Members of TSB IV, LLC

We have audited the accompanying statements of financial position of TSB IV, LLC
as of February 29, 2000 and February 28, 1999 and 1998, and the related
statements of operations and members' deficiency, and cash flows for each of the
three years in the period ended February 29, 2000. These financial statements
are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to
express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted
in the United States. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit
to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free
of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence
supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit
also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates
made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement
presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our
opinion.

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in
all material respects, the financial position of TSB IV, LLC at February 29,
2000 and February 28, 1999 and 1998, and the results of its operations and its
cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended February 29, 2000 in
conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States.

As discussed in Note 2 to the financial statements, in fiscal 2000 the Company
changed its method of accounting for start-up costs.

                          (A Limited Liability Company)
                          Notes to Financial Statements

          Years ended February 29, 2000 and February 28, 1999 and 1998

1. Basis of Presentation and Business

The financial statements include the accounts of TSB IV, LLC (the Company) which
is owned indirectly by Alan R. Brill (Mr. Brill). The Company owns and operates
a radio station in the Evansville, Indiana/Henderson, Kentucky market.

The Company was organized on December 18, 1996 as a limited liability company
under the laws of the state of Virginia and has a term of 50 years.

2. Significant Accounting Policies

Cash Equivalents

The Company considers all highly liquid investments purchased with a maturity of
three months or less to be cash equivalents.

Property and Equipment

Property and equipment are stated at cost. Depreciation is provided under the
straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the various assets as
follows:

             Buildings and improvements              10 to 40 years
             Towers and antennae                     13 to 20 years
             Broadcast equipment                      3 to 13 years
             Furniture and fixtures                   3 to 10 years

Intangible Assets

Goodwill and FCC licenses are being amortized as required by generally accepted
accounting principles. Amortization is calculated on the straight-line basis
over a period of 40 years.


                                       5
<PAGE>

2. Significant Accounting Policies (continued)

Long-Lived Assets

The Company annually considers whether indicators of impairment of long-lived
assets held for use (including intangibles) are present. If such indicators are
present, the Company determines whether the sum of the estimated undiscounted
future cash flows is less than their carrying amounts. The Company recognizes
any impairment loss based on the excess of the carrying amount of the assets
over their fair value. No impairment loss has been recognized during the three
years ended February 29, 2000.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that
affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes.
Actual results could differ from those estimates.


Revenue Recognition

The Company recognizes revenue when an ad is aired.

Advertising

Advertising costs are expensed as incurred and totaled $349,391, $278,561 and
$288,985 for the years ended February 29, 2000 and February 28, 1999 and 1998,
respectively.

Comprehensive Income

Net loss for the three years in the period ended February 29, 2000 is the same
as comprehensive loss.

Recently Issued Accounting Standards

The Company adopted AcSEC Statement of Position 98-5 "Reporting on the Costs of
Start-Up Activities" in the first quarter of fiscal 2000 and wrote-off, as
required, $13,829 of previously capitalized start-up costs as a cumulative
effect of change in accounting principle. All future start-up or preopening
costs will be expensed as incurred.

3. Acquisitions and Dispositions

In January 1997, the Company entered into a contract to purchase the assets of a
radio station located in Evansville, Indiana/Henderson, Kentucky for $8,000,000
in cash. The Company further contracted to lease the programming of the radio
station from the seller under a Time Brokerage Agreement (TBA) beginning in
February 1997, for $31,000 per month, until transfer of the FCC license in May
1997.

Accordingly, the accompanying financial statements also reflect the operations
of the station pursuant to the TBA arrangement through the purchase date. The
acquisition in May 1997, has been accounted for as a purchase effective on such
date.

The purchase price was allocated as follows:


        Property and equipment                        $  1,800,000
        Goodwill and FCC license                         6,200,000
                                                      ------------
                                                      $  8,000,000

The following unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated financial statements
give effect to the acquisition (the "Acquisition") of TSB IV, LLC by certain
wholly owned subsidiaries of Brill Media Company, LLC (the "Company"). The
Company has accounted for the Acquisition similar to a pooling-of-interests due

unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated statements of operations for the year
ended February 29, 2000 and six months ended August 31, 2000 give effect to the
Acquisition as if it had occurred on March 1, 1999.

The pro forma adjustments are based on available information and certain
assumptions that the Company believes are reasonable under the circumstances.
The unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated financial statements should be
read in conjunction with the separate historical financial statements of TSB IV,
LLC and Brill Media Company, LLC, and related notes thereto included in this

necessarily indicative of the actual results of operations or financial position
that would have occurred had the acquisition by Brill Media Company, LLC of TSB
IV, LLC occurred on the dates indicated nor are they necessarily indicative of
future operating results or financial position and are not intended to be a
projection of future results or trends.
