Clear Channel Agrees to Pay $22 Million to Rhode Island Fire Victims By Newsferatu, Writer Thursday, February 14, 2008 @ 10:47 AM
Court papers filed Wednesday show that lawyers for company and for the victims have reached a tentative deal.
Hundreds of survivors and victims' relatives sued after the February 2003 fire at the club, which occurred when pyrotechnics used by the 1980s rock band Great White ignited flammable soundproofing around the stage.
The tentative deal with Clear Channel brings to more than $70 million the settlement money offered to victims' relatives.
Clear Channel was sued because one of its radio stations sponsored the Great White concert by running on-air advertisements.
